I was following the guide and information from A gentle tutorial to Emacs/Swank/Paredit for Clojure
However after opening elpa and installing clojure-mode, slime and paredit. I restarted emacs and then attempted to use M-x slime however it continually says no match . What am I doing wrong?
I then tried to install clojure-mode from marmalade http://marmalade-repo.org/packages I byte-compiled package el and then added (add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")) to my.emacs. However marmalade errors with Symbol's value as variable is void: package-archives .
Unsure exactly what I am doing wrong I am on windows7 using emacs 23.3. I have clojure installed to c:/clojure.
Any help appreciated.
My init.el has both (require 'package) and (package-initialize). It's not very big, it looks like this:
(require 'package)
;; Add the original Emacs Lisp Package Archive
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("elpa" . "http://tromey.com/elpa/"))
;; Add the user-contributed repository
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/"))
(package-initialize)
I'm on emacs 24 (a development build) on Windows 7. I had trouble getting emacs 23 to work with packages too, it was easier for me to just upgrade.
By the way, I noticed that if I set a HOME environment variable, emacs looks there for the .emacs.d directory (instead of in %USER_PROFILE%\AppData\Roaming).
