[Gardeners] CLisp GUI application creation "hand holding"

[LeAnthony Mathews]

Peter
  What would it take to set up some batch files in the windows environment
to perform this extending task automatically?  It seems that part of the
problem is the command line windows versus unix as well is directory naming
issues and exact lisp syntax for installing packages.  Yet Lispbox works
wonders getting emacs/slime/and clisp working together like clockwork.
