At least this is not as expected. I have found this "bug" ... it was the new (searchpath ...) call in file "testbed.xdy". To make the test I have copied this file without changing it appropriately :-( [...] : As you can see, here it works fine. I had some trouble with different : (merge-pathnames)-conventions. I already asked the CLISP-Mailing list : about this last year. Probably there is a different implementation. The implementation of pathnames and logical pathnames are different. IMHO the implementation of Allegro CL 4.3 is as conformant to the standard and the last changes to it as possible. Remember: the descriptions in CLtL2 doesn't reflect the last changes! [...] : P.S: I'll put an inofficial relase of xindy on the ftp-server. With : your changes incorporated. I have got Xindy 1.2.1 and now these are the "bugs" and necessary changes I have found so far: - ".../binaries/.../defaults.xdy", "idxstyle.lsp", "markup.lsp" *load-paths* is not external (and not imported to the USER package). Fix: in "idxstyle.lsp" (export 'idxstyle:*load-paths*) and either change ".../binaries/.../Makefile" to access idxstyle:*load-paths* instead of *load-paths* or import this symbols to the USER package. (I have missed to report this bug last time.) - "markup.lsp" There are still two (exit) calls, one in function `startup', another one in `*break-driver*'. - "idxstyle.lsp" The type `string-char' in (make-array 32 :element-type 'string-char ...) has also be changed to `base-char' for Allegro CL. - "*.lsp" If ``#+CLISP <expr> #+ALLEGRO <expr>'' is used, it's better to add a "default" <expr> for non-CLISP non-ALLEGRO lisps, i.e. #+CLISP <expr> #+ALLEGRO <expr> #-(or CLISP ALLEGRO) <expr> Or use something like ``#+CLISP <expr> #-CLISP <expr>''. - "markup.lsp" When opening the `logfile' in function `do-startup' add the keyword/value :if-exists :overwrite to the `open' function call. The default for :if-exists is :error, i.e. signal an error if file to be written exists. Same change needed when opening the `output' file in this function. With these changes, I was able to startup Allegro CL, load all necessary files (without warnings), and start a first test (after adding ":last" to the search path in my copy of "testbed.xdy") with (xindy:startup :idxstyle "attr1.xdy" :rawindex "attr1.raw" :output "attr1.ind" :logfile "attr1.xlg" :trace-level 1) which returns with the following error: [...] Loading module "testbed.xdy"...
