The way to invoke another lisp is to setq the inferior-lisp-program
variable. So in your case you should put in your .emacs :

	(setq inferior-lisp-program  "clisp")

I do not know if this is true everywhere, but there is an error in one
of the functions in shell.el. The function is "inferior-lisp-mode" and
the error in a statement in that procedure should be changed from :

	(lisp-mode-variables)

to
	(lisp-mode-variables nil)

as "lisp-mode-variables" defined in lisp-mode.el requires an argument.
Hope that helps.
