[slime-devel] slime-apropos-package now sorts correctly
by Hoehle, Joerg-Cyril 20 Apr '07

20 Apr '07

Hi, slime-apropos-package now conforms to its specification and also sorts symbols printed with package prefix. I supply the patches as attachments in the hope that MS-Windows nor MS-Outlook will break the TAB and LF characters of the original diff. I hope this is fine. Regards, Jörg Höhle.

[slime-devel] comma shortcut doesn't work always
by Edi Weitz 31 Jan '06

31 Jan '06

Another minor glitch that I encountered is that the comma shortcut in the REPL doesn't always work. I can consistently reproduce it (GNU Emacs 21.3.50 and also 21.3 release) like this: 1. Make sure point is at the beginning of a REPL input line. 2. Split Emacs frame into two windows, one of them being the REPL the other one containing something else. 3. Hide REPL window with C-x 0. 4. Now type M-x slime. 5. Type the comma. At this point I'm not asked for a shortcut command in the minibuffer but the comma is simply entered into the REPL instead. Anybody else seeing this? Cheers, Edi.

CLISP still breaks for me in the latest CVS. I have had a look at all of the DEFSLIMEFUN's that were modified since 4/18 (the previous CVS version that I had which was working ok with CLISP) and haven't found any obvious clues. Any suggestions on how I might debug this issue as it occurs at startup during the slime-connect processing in Emacs (after CLISP has started up successfully)? - Bill

[slime-devel] Installing slime for clisp 2.35 - Error
by Surendra Singhi 10 Jan '06

10 Jan '06

Hello, I recently upgraded to clisp 2.35 and now when I try to start slime on a lisp file, slime gets stuck. The *inferior-lisp* buffer shows me the following restart. ** - Continuable Error INTERN("*DOCUMENTATION*"): #<PACKAGE SYSTEM> is locked If you continue (by typing 'continue'): Ignore the lock and proceed The following restarts are also available: SKIP :R1 skip (COMPILE-FILES-IF-NEEDED-SERIALLY #) STOP :R2 stop loading file C:\Program Files\XEmacs\xemacs-packages\lisp\slime-1.2.1\swank-loader.lisp ABORT :R3 ABORT Doing 'continue', doesn't starts the slime repl, nor does selecting any of the restarts help. But, the inferior lisp buffer shows a lisp prompt, which can be used. What should I do to get over this problem? The slime related contents of my init file are: (load-library "inf-lisp") (setq inferior-lisp-program "C:\\clisp-2.35\\clisp.exe -I -m 256mb") (add-hook 'inferior-lisp-mode-hook (lambda () (inferior-slime-mode t))) (require 'timer) (require 'slime) (slime-setup) Thanks. -- Surendra Singhi http://www.public.asu.edu/~sksinghi/index.html "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." - Orwell, Animal Farm, 1945

[slime-devel] Problems with M-x slime-disconnect
by Alexis Rondeau 01 Dec '05

01 Dec '05

Hi there, I have been wanting to try out to connect to a running sbcl (0.9.5 on sarge) lisp In my console, I startup slime (which I got from cvs today) and create the server: * (swank:create-server) ;; Swank started at port: 4005. 4005 This works fine. In my emacs I hit M-x slime-connect and after providing host and port, I am actually using the above started lisp. So far so good, but now the actual problem arises. Once I hit M-x slime-disconnect in Emacs I get the following error in my sbcl and cannot reconnect to the lisp: * ;; Connection to Emacs lost. ;; [end of file on #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "a constant string" {AC56161}>] debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-ERROR in thread #<THREAD "auto-flush-thread" {AD822F1}>: #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "a constant string" {AC5D1C1}> is closed. I have been searching all over the internet for a solution because this way I can not really work because I can only once connect to the lisp and not again. Can anyone give me a pointer on what I am doing wrong? I am totally stunned because I seem to be the only one that has this problem :( In any case, thank you for your help! Slime is working amazingly otherwise just this feature is really important to me. Alexis

[slime-devel] exited abnormally with code 256
by John J Foerch 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Hi, Slime used to work for me, a couple months ago. Then I didn't touch it for a couple months and now when I «M-x slime» things load and compile for a bit, then I get the message: Lisp connection closed unexpectedly: exited abnormally with code 256 I tried updating my copy of Slime to the current CVS version. I tried deleting the .fasl files in ~/.slime/fasl. I am a total newb so I don't know what else I can try. Any suggestions? My emacs is Gnu Emacs 21.3. My lisp is SBCL 0.9.4. -John J Foerch

[slime-devel] .slime
by Michael 23 Nov '05

Unfortunately there is no directory ~/.slime and there are no files *.fasl other than those accompanying the common lisp install. So I am unable to use this fix.
