First, I ran emacs -Q, After Emacs loaded, I ran M-x ielm, Below is the log of my IELM session: *** Welcome to IELM *** Type (describe-mode) for help. ELISP> (setq inferrior-lisp-program "sbcl") "sbcl" ELISP> inferrior-lisp-program "sbcl" ELISP> (load (expand-file-name "~/quicklisp/slime-helper.el")) t ELISP> inferrior-lisp-program "sbcl" ELISP> And here is the relevant content of the *Messages* buffer: Loading /home/wvxvw/quicklisp/slime-helper.el (source)...done . . . apply: Searching for program: no such file or directory, lisp To elaborate, the default value of `inferrior-lisp-program' is "lisp", this is why you see it in SLIME's error message. The problem is, I can execute (setq inferrior-lisp-program "sbcl") no matter how (using M-: or from *scratch* buffer, or from IELM), but the variable will not get set. Best, Oleg
