Re: [Gcl-devel] load-time value support, closed compile bugs in ANSItest suite

[Camm Maguire]

Greetings!

What I typically do is search for OPEN.1 from the top of the output,
and copy the form reported as failing into a gcl process to see the
full error output.  In case you use emacs, this is quite easy:

(With the test results in one buffer, and saved_ansi_gcl running in
the  ansi-tests/ directory under a shell in another emacs buffer:)

C-s OPEN.1
(advance to top of form)
C-M-Space M-w (copies form into paste buffer)
C-x o
C-y

Make sure to prepare the gcl-running buffer first with

(load "gclload1.lsp")
(in-package 'cl-test)

Take care,
