[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] Comment indentation in newer Emacsen
by Edi Weitz 03 Jul '05

03 Jul '05

Dumb question number two for today: I've recently switched to a CVS build (circa end of January) of GNU Emacs on Windows. Now, if I have a function like this in a lisp mode buffer (defun foo () "This is a very very very very very very very very very very very very long comment line." (bar x)) and press M-q within the comment string the result looks like so: (defun foo () "This is a very very very very very very very very very very very very long comment line." (bar x)) However, in 21.3 the result looked like this (defun foo () "This is a very very very very very very very very very very very very long comment line." (bar x)) which is what I prefer. Is this a bug or can the behaviour be changed with some setting that I'm missing? Thanks, Edi.

[slime-devel] Problems with LWW FLI
by Edi Weitz 29 Mar '05

29 Mar '05

Hi! Has anyone else problems with SLIME when using Lispworks on Windows (XP) and its FLI? I've run into a (reproducable but complicated) situation where SLIME simply hung while there were no problems from the LW IDE or from the command line. I'm sitting at my Linux laptop now but I can try to create a simple test case - I just wanted to check if this is a known problem. Cheers, Edi.

[slime-devel] installing slime in fedora core 3?
by Jason Wang 15 Mar '05

15 Mar '05

hi, i'm very new to linux.. i have installed Fedora Core 3 on my computer, it's working fine. I want to install slime onto Fedora Core 3.... i can't seem to follow the installation instructions.. on the installation instructions: (slime-setup) when i typed this into emacs and compile and run it, it just returned nil.. anyone know what's happening? thanks alot :D -- www.programer.name - my own personal blog : ) The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heav'n of hell, a hell of heav'n. What matter where, if I be still the same, and what I should be, all but less than he whom thunder hath made greater? Here at least we shall be free; th' Almighty hath not built here for his envy, will not drive us hence: Here we may reign secure, and in my choice to reign is worth ambition though in hell: Better to reign in hell, than serve in heav'n. --- John Milton, in his epic poem Paradise Lost

[slime-devel] Post 1.0 official release?
by Peter Seibel 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

Are there any plans for a 1.1 or 1.0.1 or whatever "official" release. (I think I've read all the SLIME messages that have come across the transom in recent months but I haven't been paying super close attention so may have missed an announcement or discussion.) I ask because after the 25th when I turn in my last page proof, I'm going to be spending a month getting together a Lisp in a Box distro that includes the code from my book. And I seem to recall that SLIME 1.0 doesn't work with the newer versions of SBCL (because of the Unicode support added to SBCL?). So from my purely selfish point of view, now would be an excellent time for an official upgrade of SLIME. If that's not going to happen I'll probably build a LIAB distro with some snapshot of CVS SLIME that seems to work well. Also, if there are specific things that need to happen before a 1.1 or 1.0.1 release of SLIME, let me know; maybe I can tackle some of them. -Peter -- Peter Seibel peter(a)javamonkey.com Lisp is the red pill. -- John Fraser, comp.lang.lisp

[slime-devel] Trying to get started with OpenMCL
by rif 01 Mar '05

01 Mar '05

I downloaded the latest OpenMCL distribution for OS x (openmcl-darwinppc-all-0.14.2-p1.tar.gz) and a fresh CVS slime. I tried to start slime with M-x slime from an emacs with a .emacs containing only: (setq inferior-lisp-program "/Applications/ccl/scripts/openmcl") (add-to-list 'load-path "/Users/rif/Software/slime") (require 'slime) (slime-setup) When I ran M-x slime, I got the following: (load "/Users/rif/Software/slime/swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t) (swank:start-server "/tmp/slime.10272" :external-format :iso-latin-1-unix) Welcome to OpenMCL Version (Beta: Darwin) 0.14.2-p1! ? ;Loading #P"/Users/rif/Software/slime/swank-loader.lisp"... ;Loading #P"/Users/rif/.slime/fasl/openmcl/swank-backend.dfsl"... ;Loading #P"/Users/rif/.slime/fasl/openmcl/nregex.dfsl"... ;Loading #P"/Users/rif/.slime/fasl/openmcl/metering.dfsl"... ;Compiling "/Users/rif/Software/slime/swank-openmcl.lisp"... ;Compiler warnings for "/Users/rif/Software/slime/swank-openmcl.lisp" : ; Unused lexical variable STREAM, in (MAKE-STREAM-INTERACTIVE (T)). ; Warning: Interface file #4P"ccl:darwin-headers;libc;functions.cdb" does not exist. ; While executing: CCL::CDB-OPEN Read error between positions 8480 and 8595 in /Users/rif/Software/slime/swank-openmcl.lisp. > Error in process listener(1): Foreign function not found: OS::|tmpnam| > While executing: CCL::LOAD-EXTERNAL-FUNCTION > Type :POP to abort.

[slime-devel] please make the new extended trace and the original trace coexist.

I like this idea a lot. With the extended trace command, it is not convenient to trace all methods of a generic function if I do not have a (DEFGENERIC ...) defined. To do that, I have to either type (TRACE ...) into a REPL or do C-c C-t on all (defmethod ...). Or maybe I'm missing something? Please make the new extended trace command coexist with the original one. Thanks a lot. -cph

[slime-devel] Viper-mode and SLIME
by Vincent Foley 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

Hello everyone, I've searched Google without any luck, so I'll ask here: when I use SLIME with viper-mode, the minor-mode keybindings (such as C-c C-c, etc.) are not loaded. If I comment out the part about viper in my .emacs, the keybindings are loaded. Is it possible to have both viper and slime keybindings at the same time? Thank you, Vincent. -- Vincent Foley-Bourgon Blog: http://www.livejournal.com/~gnuvince [ 6 * 9 = 42 ] whileTrue: [ World run ]

[slime-devel] SLIME 1.0 Install Problem on Win2k/CLisp

I'm a long-time Emacs user, but I'm just starting to learn Common Lisp. SLIME looks great, but I'm having a problem during installation. I have the following system: Windows 2000 SP4 CLisp version 2.30 GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) I installed SLIME version 1.0 as per the manual and added the following to my .emacs file: ------------------------------------------------------ ;;; SLIME Configuration (setq inferior-lisp-program "c:/devtools/clisp/lisp.exe -M c:/devtools/clisp/lispinit.mem -B c:/devtools/clisp/") (add-to-list 'load-path "d:/pub/site-lisp/slime") (require 'slime) (slime-setup) ------------------------------------------------------ But when I 'M-x slime', I get the following in the *inferior-lisp* buffer: ====================================================== [1]> ;; Loading file D:\Pub\site-lisp\slime\swank-loader.lisp ... ;; Compiling D:\Pub\site-lisp\slime\swank-backend.lisp...
