First of all, make sure you use the latest versions of slime, clojure, swank-clojre and clojure-mode. It works fine for me on both linux and windows.
get latest slime here - http://common-lisp.net/project/slime/ get latest swank-clojure (your version seems to be outdated) here - http://github.com/jochu/swank-clojure/tree/master get lates clojure-mode here - http://github.com/jochu/clojure-mode/tree/master I hope you know where to get the latest clojure :) On Sun, Mar 8, 2009 at 5:18 AM, youngblood.carl <youngblood.c...@gmail.com>wrote: > > Howdy all, > > I'm brand new to this scene (where scene means lisp, closure, linux, > and emacs), so apologies if this has been addressed.
