The only way to run CMU CL that works on all platforms (except solaris) is to
put this in your .login shell script:
    setenv CMUCLLIB "/afs/cs/misc/cmucl/@sys/beta/lib"
    setenv PATH $PATH":/afs/cs/misc/cmucl/@sys/beta/bin"

Eventually, you should be able to just say "cmucl" and run out of
/usr/local/bin, with CMUCLLIB defaulting to /usr/local/lib/cmucl/lib.  However,
this isn't set up on platforms yet, and there is also a bug in defaulting
CMUCLLIB, so for now just set CMUCLLIB to point directly to the AFS release
area.

However you set it up, run "lisp".  Note that the first time you run Lisp, it
will take AFS several minutes to copy the image into its local cache.
Subsequent starts will be much faster.

Binary tar distributions for sunos and HP-UX are also available in
/afs/cs/project/clisp/release.  This includes a new "runtime" distribution
which can be used to build relatively small (6 meg) CMU CL images. 

"man lisp" will describe command line options (if your MPATH or MANPATH has
been set to include the CMU CL man directory.)

See the doc/ directory for release notes and documentation.  Rather old
hardcopy documentation is available as tech reports in the document room.

report to gripe, they will just forward it to this mailing list.
