From: Alex T Prengel <alexp@MIT.EDU>
I have installed an upgrade, to release 5.0, of Allegro Common Lisp for Athena
Suns and SGIs. To run it, do:
add acl; cl -ver 5.0 (Lisp only)
add acl; cl-xemacs -ver 5.0 & (for the xemacs/Composer interface)
to load CLIM from within Lisp, type:
(require :climxm)
to run CLIM demos, after loading CLIM, type:
(require :climdemo)
followed by
(clim-demo:start-demo)
(you will run into an error message and some funny characters will print out,
but this is harmless).
The Xemacs interface won't work on Indys because Xemacs is broken on IRIX 6.2.
Documentation in HTML format is available starting from:
http://web.mit.edu/acl_v5.0/eli/readme.htm (Emacs-Lisp interface)
http://web.mit.edu/acl_v5.0/distrib/common/doc/cl/introduction.htm (Intro)
This release will be made the Athena default sometime during next IAP.
Installation or configuration problems can be reported directly to me.
Alex
