Re: [Matlisp-users] Still can't get Matlisp working

[rif <ri...@MI...>]

What am I missing?  When I start lisp up, it certainly seems like
there's a help function --- the message says type (help) for help.
This (help) function does not seem to be an artifact, since it does
seem to provide help on using CMUCL.  And I'm getting a symbol
conflict with matlisp.  If my uninterning choice is bad, what's a
better approach?

If you aren't running this with ilisp in emacs,
or aren't intending to use hemlock then you
deserve to lose. :-)
