Hello Everyone,

Not sure if this is possible but I am currently running Ubuntu:

Cannot get Emacs gnus to run 41 weeks 2 days ago

I have previously run gnus in emacs on an old machine running Fedora 14, which has now packed up.

I copied my .gnus.el to my new machine, but when I do an Mx-gnus (or Tools->Read net News), I get the error:

Error in ~/.gnus: Cannot open load file

I just did a simple:

sudo yum install emacs

to get emacs installed.

Original Question

I'm trying to create a Lisp library that can, among other things, edit my system's /etc/hosts file and nginx configurations. The problem I'm facing is that, because my Lisp image operates as an unprivileged user, my library can't do these things.

I don't know what's wrong but when I try to compile this AUR-package I get:; compiling (DEFCONSTANT +IMAGE-BYTE-LSB-FIRST-P+ ...) ; compiling (DEFCONSTANT +IMAGE-UNIT+ ...) ; compiling (DEFCONSTANT +IMAGE-PAD+ ...) ; compiling (DEFCONSTANT +X-UNIX-SOCKET-PATH+ ...) ; compiling (DEFUN UNIX-SOCKET-PATH-FROM-HOST ...)

What is the purpose of lisp 2 weeks 3 days ago

Hi. I recently started learning common lisp from Peter Norvig's book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...ce_Programming .I've now gotten through the first two chapters and have now solved several of the first 20 problems on projecteuler.net using lisp (but not all). I'm really starting to appreciate what a great language it is but I'm not sure what it is used for in real life.
