[Gardeners] CLisp GUI application creation "hand holding"

[LeAnthony Mathews]

O.K. after taking a day or two off trying to get the wxCL GUI examples to
run on my windows XP machine I have given it another try here are my issues:

1..using the slime init file:
site-init.lisp

I added the line:

(register-source-directory "C:\lispbox-0.6\packages\wxcl\")

which is is the path with wxCL .asd file for my computer


2.  using the defpackage.lisp inside ..\wxcl\source\defpackage.lisp
I added:

(:export #: C:\lispbox-0.6\packages\wxcl\lib\wxc-msw2.6.2.dll
which is the the exact path to the wxcl .dll

3. I loaded emacs/slime/cl(works very well)

4. I load hello-world.lisp from the examples in the wxcl directory

5. I compile and I get the following error.

  #P"C:\\lispbox-0.6\\packages\\wxcl\\examples\\hello-world.lisp" @4>: there
is no package with name #1="WXCL-WINDOWS"

   [Condition of type SYSTEM::SIMPLE-PACKAGE-ERROR]


My thought is it is the way I am introducing the .asd into the
site-init.lisp file.  Here are the alternate (register-source-directory) i
tried:

(register-source-directory (lispbox-file (make-pathname :directory
'(:relative "packages"))))

(register-source-directory "C:\lispbox-0.6\packages\wxcl\")

(register-source-directory "C:/lispbox-0.6/packages/wxcl/")

I don't think it is loading the package.  Can anyone suggest a solution.  I
really want to get this to work.  Thanks
