Re: java.lang.NullPointerException when loading SSAX.scm in kawa-1.7

[Stan Pinte <stan at altosw dot be>]

how do you run kawa?

in my .emacs, I have the following, and I had the impression the errors 
came allright.

(defun run-kawa ()
 "Run Kawa Scheme in an Emacs buffer."
 (interactive)
  (require 'cmuscheme)
  (let ((scheme-program-name "/usr/local/bin/kawa"))
    (run-scheme scheme-program-name)))
