How to setup Emacs 23.1 and slime for Ubuntu
After searching and patching around this is what you have to do:
First, install emacs23 (emacs-snapshot) from here https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-elisp/+archive/ppa. Choose your distro, add the entries to your sources.list, install and you have emacs 23.1.
Now, add slime and sbcl from ubuntu repositories and add this to your .emacs file:
;; Lisp
(setq inferior-lisp-program “sbcl”)
(add-to-list ‘load-path “/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/slime”)
(require ‘slime)
(slime-setup ‘(slime-fancy))
and happy hacking!
