Loading saved files (ok i'm a numpty)
Posted: Fri Jan 10, 2014 2:49 pm
I have a macbook and have installed lisp-in-a-box.
Trying to work through Practical Common Lisp.
P17 ( i know i haven't gotton very far)
trying to open my saved hello world program
; SLIME 2011-02-04
CL-USER> (load "hello.lisp")
#P"/hello.lisp"
it doesn't work as it doesn't know where to look, or so the book says. I should then quit the debugger by typing q
Unbound variable: Q
[Condition of type UNBOUND-VARIABLE]
Restarts:
0: [CONTINUE] Retry getting the value of Q.
1: [USE-VALUE] Specify a value of Q to use this time.
2: [STORE-VALUE] Specify a value of Q to store and use.
3: [RETRY] Retry SLIME REPL evaluation request.
4: [*ABORT] Return to SLIME's top level.
5: [ABORT-BREAK] Reset this thread
--more--
Backtrace:
0: (CCL::CHEAP-EVAL Q)
--more--
???? i'm then supposed to type a comma and then cd to point emacs to where the file is stored but i can't figure out how to do this
thanks in advance for your infinite patience
