LispWorks User Guide
10 Simple Customization of LispWorks
This chapter gives examples of how to make minor changes to the LispWorks interface: how to change the appearance of windows; how to add new buttons, how to set up printer details, and so on.
There are a number of files that contain configuration and initialization information:
- The LispWorks file
config/configure.lispcontains many default configuration settings. You should customize this file when you install LispWorks. - The LispWorks file
config/key-bindings.lispgives the default key bindings. - Your home directory may contain a
.lispworksfile containing Lisp forms to be evaluated on startup.
- By default, your home directory is located in
/users/, and has the same name as your Windows user name. Thus, if you log on with the namejohn, your home directory is/users/john/.
Many of the customizations discussed in this chapter involve making changes to your.lispworks file.
