Oh, that I can do without trouble. It compiles beautifully, out of the
box. It starts perfectly. It serves up vast reams of documentation which
I can't understand (and I am a fairly experienced hacker of LISP
systems). I have yet, in what probably totals up to twenty hours work,
got it to interface to any code of mine, or serve a single computed page
of mine... I will persevere, because conceptually I'm convinced that
this is the right way to go, and will ultimately deliver the kind of Web
functionality that I want.

But if I succeed, I am jolly well going to write up some beginners
documentation. Because it *really* shouldn't be this hard!
