hello,
i have tried to build slatex with clisp but i noticed that this did not work. finally i cut down the
problem to this little program:
-- start --
;(defvar inner-space (code-char 7))
(defvar inner-space (code-char 20))
-- end --
when i safe this as "test.lisp" and compile it with (compile-file "test.lisp") my windows clisp just
hangs forever.
if i change the commenting (first line uncomment, second line comment) then it works. it seems
that there is a problem in the code-char routine so that with certain input values it does not work.
i am running clisp version 2.27 on windows 2000:
GNU CLISP 2.27 (released 2001-07-17) (built on ssteingold.exapps.com [172.23.101.12])
i tried the same thing with an old verision of clisp on linux:
CLISP 1999-07-22 (July 1999)
and there i did not run into this problem.

thank you for your bug report.
the bug has been fixed in the CVS tree.
you can either wait for the next release (recommended)
or check out the current CVS tree (see http://clisp.cons.org\)
and build CLISP from the sources (be advised that between
releases the CVS tree is very unstable and may not even build
on your platform).
