I've replied to these arguments before on HN but it bears repeating: You really do not have to use Emacs and Slime to get going with Common Lisp. There are many options including using whatever you're already familiar with or just plain Notepad.
It's unfortunate that people advocating Lisp also advocate Emacs+Slime as the only option (although it is a good option).

- aerique 16y agoOh please. Most programmers already somewhat decent editors like Textmate, Notepad++ or Vim.
