I could not install SLIME into GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
a long time.
I find solution (Thank to
John Thingstad) on
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.lisp/browse_thread/thread/bd134ae7a422404f
: 'Try Progra~1 instaed of "Program Files" '
"The emacs reader is seeing eveything after Program as the next command
line argument.
So it can't find file "C:\Program".
On the Bash command line I could write C:/Program\ Files/... but this
doesn't seem to work in Emacs.
Thus I used the DOS 8.3 long name conversion instead. This is really a
anacronism since no-one uses DOS anymore but it still works. "
What about it?

Reading the thread linked above, the problem appears to be that the path
to the executable was not quoted, even though it contained a space, so
the part of the path that was after the space is interpreted as the
first argument. This is normal - all shells and programs with shell-like
functionality require proper quoting of commands and arguments in the
presence of whitespace and other special characters.
