Code for Steps 3-7 requested #202

Open vgivanovic opened 3 years ago

I can't get SICL to build, and I've been at it for more than an hour. My problem is a lack of understanding of SBCL, quicklisp, and SICL, not laziness. I think I can get ASDF loaded (ql:system-apropos "asdf") returns 15 lines with "asdf" in it), but I can't get any further.

Could I get some CL code for Steps 3 through 7? I've installed and initialized quicklisp and the top-level directory of SICL is /usr/local/src/SICL.

Many thanks.

For step 3, put symbolic links in your ~/quicklisp/local-projects directory to the directory where you keep SICL and other projects that you can not install with Quicklisp. At the REPL, do (ql:register-local-projects), and then you should be fine for the remaining steps.

Having said that, I must emphasize that SICL is not finished, so there is not much you can do with it even after you build what we have at this point.

Got it, thanks. I'll give it a whirl.
