I don't use xemacs, but GNU Emacs understands the function.  Is it
maybe not available for xemacs?

Here's the relevant help from GNU Emacs:

 run-lisp is an alias for `inferior-lisp' in `loaddefs.el'.
 [Arg list not available until function definition is loaded.]

 Run an inferior Lisp process, input and output via buffer `*inferior-lisp*'.
 If there is a process already running in `*inferior-lisp*', just switch
 to that buffer.
 With argument, allows you to edit the command line (default is value
 of `inferior-lisp-program').  Runs the hooks from
 `inferior-lisp-mode-hook' (after the `comint-mode-hook' is run).
 (Type C-h m in the process buffer for a list of commands.)
