I remember trying this long, long ago but never getting it to work. Probably back in late version-18 days. That effort was with one of the pseudo-Motifs installed, later the real Motif became available, but I no longer needed X as part of cmucl.
I also run Gentoo, but all of cmucl lisp is managed outside of the 'emerge' system, as when I started years ago, the gentoo cmucl had some long-forgotten problems. I would compile my own cmucl instead, using the prior version after testing the released binaries. > Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2015 14:20:12 +0200 > From: Helmut Jarausch <[email protected]> > > I've installed cmucl-20e on my Gentoo system. > I have no idea to get into the graphics mode. > If I do > > (require :clx) > (require :hemlock) > (ed) > > The just opened X-window doesn't get focus such that I can't enter > anything. you might want to try 'xprop' on it. or perhaps your window manager has some useful tool.... > >From the man page > Call INTERFACE:LISP-CONTROL-PANEL to create the control panel. > When > INTERFACE:*INTERFACE-STYLE* is :GRAPHICS (the default) and the DISPLAY > environment variable is defined, the graphical inspector and debugger > will be invoked by INSPECT or when an error is signalled.
