Basic .emacs question

Hi

Hoping for help with something basic my .emacs set up for SBCL in emacs. I have slime working in emacs using sbcl and sbcl works in a terminal. But I cannot however get REPL access for SBCL via emacs.

Can anyone shed some light on this or show me a working .emacs where this is set up ? I have tried several combo's off articles on the web but no joy.

The only version of CL I got working with SLIME is CMUCL:

sudo aptitude update

sudo aptitude install cmucl

Edit your .emacs to reflect the changes. Mine is like this:

(setq inferior-lisp-program "/path/to/lisp/executable")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/slime/installation")
(require 'slime)
(slime-setup)

Then start up emacs and type:

M-x slime

where M is the Alt key and x is the letter x.

to start SLIME.
