[slime-devel] Parsing the in-package form
by Antonio Menezes Leitao 23 Nov '06

23 Nov '06

Hi, If I'm not mistaken, the current Slime version doesn't correctly parse in-package forms when the package name is a string or a keyword. This can be easily seen by writing in an edit buffer (in-package :foo) or (in-package "FOO") and then pressing C-c M-p (slime-repl-set-package) The following replacement correct this behaviour. (defun slime-search-buffer-package () (save-excursion (when (let ((case-fold-search t) (regexp "^(\\(cl:\\|common-lisp:\\)?in-package\\>[ \n\t\r':\"]*")) (or (re-search-backward regexp nil t) (re-search-forward regexp nil t))) (goto-char (match-end 0)) (let ((start (point))) (let ((pkg (ignore-errors (read (current-buffer))))) (and pkg (format "%S" pkg))))))) Best regards, António Leitão.

what do people think about a varient of slime-compile-defun which wrapped the code in (locally (declaim (optimize (speed 0) (safety 3) (debug 3))) ,@form) i'd bind this to C-u C-c C-c (and C-u C-c C-k) good idea? bad idea? -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring.

[slime-devel] Documentation patch for swank:create-server
by Ury Marshak 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

There seem to be some changes related to external-format that changed the interface of swank:create-server. When looking for the source of the breakage of my lisp startup I found that the description of swank:create-server is missing from the manual. This is a small (documentation only) patch that tries to fix this (using the new :coding-system syntax) Cheers, Ury Index: ChangeLog =================================================================== RCS file: /project/slime/cvsroot/slime/ChangeLog,v retrieving revision 1.1002 diff -u -r1.1002 ChangeLog --- ChangeLog 19 Nov 2006 21:25:15 -0000 1.1002 +++ ChangeLog 21 Nov 2006 14:59:31 -0000 @@ -5,6 +5,8 @@ (slime-coding): Deleted. * swank.lisp (compile-file-for-emacs): Use guess-external-format. + (swank:create-server): no more accepts an :external-format 'enc , + use :coding-system "enc" instead. * swank-backend.lisp (find-external-format) (guess-external-format): New.

[slime-devel] Question on Downloading and installing SLIME to EMACS
by Brian Jones 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Hello, I am trying to download and install the latest version of SLIME into emacs. The operating system I am running is Ubuntu Linux. To configure the CVSROOT, would I type this command (export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@common-lisp.net:/project/slime/cvsroot) in the bash terminal? Would I log in the same way with the password "anonymous"? My second question deals with the installation process. As I've said before I am running Ubuntu Linux and I was wondering how I would find the path to my lisp system and the path to my slime directory. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ichben E.

[slime-devel] macroexpand window
by Giorgos Pontikakis 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Hello all, I have just upgraded slime to the current version from cvs and I have the following questions: 1. In emacs, let's say I have two open windows in the same frame. The first is the REPL and the second some lisp file. When I macroexpand an expression with C-c RET, say from the REPL, the result of the macroexpansion appears in the window with the lisp file. Up to here, fine, but, when I press `q' to close the macroexpansion, the window where it appeared is deleted (in my example only the REPL remains). In previous versions, the window remained intact and its former contents appeared again. I find that the old behaviour was much more convenient. I think the current behaviour is expected only if there is only one window originally and the macroexpansion itself causes the second window to open. So, is it a bug or is it intentional? If the latter is true, is there a simple way for me to revert the old behaviour (I suppose changing something in slime.el or what?) 2. I recently read in this list about some fuzzy completion patches. I thought that those just added new behaviour and I could use the old behaviour. But either I got a false impression or I cannot find the correct settings. Again, how can I revert to the old behaviour? If this matters, I use GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 on linux, with SBCL 0.9.12 Thanks in advance, -- Giorgos
