[Gardeners] Allegro 8.0 Lispboxen

[John Wiseman]

I tried Lispbox for OS X/PPC, ACL 8.0.

I had a few more or less cosmetic issues, but I think they're
significant:

Is there some reason that the installer is an installer as opposed to
just letting me drag a folder somewhere?  Did it explain somwhere why
it needed me to authenticate and I missed it?  Would it be possible at
least to let me choose to install to somewhere other than
/Applications?

The default font in the supplied Emacs looks pretty bad in OS X[1],
and I can't seem to change the font from the default.  Maybe a nice
lucida sans typewriter 12 pt?

And then the one that stopped me:

When I pointed it at the license file I downloaded from Franz
(~/Desktop/minted) I got the following error: "Opening output file:
permission denied, /Applications/Lispbox/acl80_express/devel.lic"
