newLISP runs on a Nokia N900 perfectly!

Compiling newLISP on Nokia N900

I like the pragmatic way, so I just compiled newLISP directly on my N900. This is the way how it's done in Your X-Terminal:

1. You need to install the package "rootsh" to be able doing some hacking stuff ;-)
2. Install GCC from this repository
deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/sdk free
4. Open Terminal and type this "apt-get install build-essential"
5. Install readline support "apt-get install libreadline5-dev"
6. Download newlisp source via "wget http://www.newlisp.org/downloads/newlisp-10.2.8.tgz" into /home/user
7. From /home/user do a "./configure"
8. Then MAKE via "make -f makefile_linux_maemo_utf8"
9. Do a check "make check
10. Install "make install
11. Starty newLISP by typing "newlisp"

Happy newLISPing!

Cheers Hilti

That's obvious but cool - running newLISP internal webserver on a Nokia N900.
