This help is requested in connection with the plisp package written by John Peterson of yale. I am trying to use it and finding errors. I have no lucid lisp or any other, other than the emacs lisp. I have tried to (require 'cl) without error.
(require 'cl) just gives you some compatibility with Common Lisp from Emacs Lisp. The two dialects are quite different.
You should get one of the Common Lisp implementations off the net. The sites www.alu.org or www.cliki.net are excellent starting points.
(1)I have renamed all files in plisp to be .el from .lisp since that is whatemacs seems to expect. This gave more success in the next loading command. I have also set the "load-path" variable to include both the compiler and compiler/common-lisp directories.(2) I have tried to load build.el as follows inside emacs:(load "/home/henna/plisp/compiler/build.el") CTRL-x CTRL-e The error I get in minibuffer is: Invalid read syntax: "#" Is there a simple method to solve this?
No. This is one of the fundamental differences between Common Lisp and Emacs Lisp. Get a Common Lisp.
It will save you time and eventually it will be better. Cheers -- Marco
