Sheafhom 2.2 Installation and Tutorial

March 4, 2008

Installation

Download the file shh22.zip to any location. Unzip it to a directory shh2.

In the directory shh2, start up the Lisp. Type

(load "make")

It should load with no problems. Lisps like CLisp and SBCL give many compiler messages, but you can ignore them.

The tutorial at Lispwire is from 2005 but is mostly still accurate. Here are a few things to change.

CL-USER(8): change shh2::ker to m-ker.
CL-USER(before 17): "This dictionary" has moved to the WORD.LST file at this location.
CL-USER(31 and 35): Anything with *show-stats* and *show-csw* equal to true is for Allegro CL only. In other Lisps, the *show-...* variables should keep their default bindings of nil.
CL-USER(41): shh2::coker-section is now shh2::m-coker-section.
CL-USER(42): Prepend *klein-bottle-cells* with shh2::
CL-USER(43): Prepend make-two-complex with shh2::
CL-USER(44): Prepend print-homology with shh2::
