Hello, I think this question has more to do with Slime, but I'm Cc'ing Drakma because it might be related. I'm in a situation where drakma:http-request seems to get stuck as soon as I want to retreive the BODY of a request. To simplify consider something like this: (defun foo () (multiple-value-bind (body status headers from-uri from-stream must-close reason) (http-request ...) (values body headers))) With *header-stream* set to standard output, I can see the transaction going on until the end, but then the Slime repl doesn't return. I can type comma and then slime commands, C-c C-c has no effect, and if I type something in the repl buffer, I get this on the XEmacs minibuffer window: ; pipelined request... (swank:listener-eval " ") (note the CR) On the contrary, if I comment out the (values ...) form in my function, the request completes and Slime gives me the prompt back. Any hint on what's going on would be appreciated. And BTW, how do I get of such a situation in Slime ?
