[gnu.emacs] monkey & clisp -- can't mix together ??

eho@clarity.Princeton.EDU (Eric Ho) (09/07/89)

The current version of clisp (as of August 89') doesn't mix with monkey.el
(monkey version is as of June 89').  If you load monkey.el and then load
clisp.el and then when you invoke (start-lisp) then your *lisp* buffer will be
seriously choked -- you can type in anything including <CR>'s.
If you load clisp.el before monkey.el then you're ok.  It is weird.  However,
if you're using earler version of clisp.el (say around March 89') then you're
ok no matter what you load first.

Also, but the latest and the March version of clisp.el barfs when your lisp
filename extension is .l instead of .lsp or .lisp -- it barfs when you do a
'C-c l' after you've visited your .l file.

. lisp-mode)) is in aut-mode-alist just like that for .lsp or .lisp -- it
barfs when you do a 'C-c l' after you've visited your .l file.
