Input methods do not seem to work

[ptillemans]

I could not get inputs to work on my side project. To avoid issues related to my writings I replicated with the issue by following the tutorial in the README. When trying to follow along with the tutorial I cannot get the input methods to work

The gray window appears but nothing happens when clicking. Adding a format to print something shows nothing.

When running the examples using

* (ql:quickload 'sketch-examples)
To load "sketch-examples":
  Load 1 ASDF system:
    sketch-examples
; Loading "sketch-examples"

(SKETCH-EXAMPLES)
* (make-instance 'sketch-examples:life)
#<SKETCH-EXAMPLES:LIFE {1002BE2EC3}>

I can flip the cells and make it run so at least on-text and 'on-click` seem to work on my system, so it seem to exclude things in the desktop stack.

I am also a bit confused by the discrepancy between quicklisp versions and project versions but that is probably because I have not wrapped my head around this part.

I can't check right now, but I think the quicklisp version is not in sync with the repo. So you could switch to the ultralisp distribution, or clone the repo into your quicklisp local-projects to guarantee that you have the latest version.

I did try before logging the ticket that without effect. I then got medieval on quicklisp and burned with fire all files and directories related to sketch, git cloned in local-project. Copied indigo to blue and exported that, just to be sure I was getting the right version and reran the tutorial (with blue this time) and that worked. I tried my weekend project and that worked too. Thanks for the quick reaction! Sorry for triggering an issue too soon, I am new to CL and a bit lost at the moment.

No worries, it's rather confusing and we should maybe clarify it in the docs somehow!
