Running Lisp

C-c l or M-x run-lisp runs lisp in one of your buffers.

If this fails to work, place the following line in your .emacs file in your home directory, rerun emacs and try again:

$$\mbox{\tt (setq inferior-lisp-program ''gcl'')}$$

Running lisp as an inferior process is especially convenient, since you can now execute commands that are in any of your Lisp files you are editing. If you edit a file with the extention .lisp (putting you in lisp-mode), you can use the following commands:

C-c C-e

Execute the expression near the cursor in the lisp buffer. (This is like typing ``enter'' in SchematiX or Schematik.)

C-c C-r

Execute the region in the lisp buffer.

M-C-\ or M-x indent-region

Properly indents all the code in the region.
