Hi all,

The other day I had an inadvertent infinite loop in my code, running in ABCL, and found I was unable to interrupt it with double C-c in SLIME. In fact, even when I killed the process, restarted it, and started the code with the infinite loop in a new thread, I couldn't kill the thread!

Is this a known problem, or is something wrong with my setup?

With CCL I often have the same problem, so it might be not your setup. I have list-threads and kill-threads for this: https://gitlab.com/com-informatimago/com-informatimago/blob/master/tools/thr... There's also an undocumented slime command: slime-thread-kill ; never tried it.
