[comp.emacs] Problem in lisp mode

randy@garnet.cdc.com (Randy Orrison) (02/24/89)

I've been reading the info and source for lisp-mode, and it appears
that I should be able to do a run-lisp to start up a lisp process,
then do C-M-x to send the current sexp (in my Lisp buffer) to the lisp
process, but what happens is that when I do C-M-x I get "Current
buffer has no process".  Looking at shell.el (which is the only place
I can find this error message), i guess that it's expecting the
inferior lisp process to be running in the current buffer, but the
docs for lisp mode imply that I can be editing a file in its own
buffer, and use C-M-x to send stuff to the lisp process, which must be
in a different buffer.

Am I missing something here, or can I not do what I want, or what?

    Thanks!!!
