[slime-devel] slime dies on printing some characters?
by T Taneli Vahakangas 13 Nov '06

13 Nov '06

Hello all, I'm a newb to lisp (using sbcl), slime and emacs, so maybe this is a FAQ or some other trivia I just can't find ... anyway, doing this: (string #\UGARITIC_LETTER_ALPA) causes slime to die and complain on emacs bottom-line about: error in process filter: net-read error: (end-of-file) If I start sbcl from the command-line it works. Most other interesting characters work, like, say #\ARABIC_LETTER_HAMZA or #\HEBREW_LETTER_ALEF, but for whatever reason ugaritic and some others don't. I don't have a comprehensive list, but besides ugaritic, at least #\LANGUAGE_TAG kills slime. What can be done about it? Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be (un)done? Taneli

[slime-devel] Documentation project
by Jeffrey Cunningham 13 Nov '06

I've been working on this documentation and ran across a function 'slime-edit-value that shows up in with a key-binding to 'E' (uppercase E). How does that work? I mean, I know what the function does, but how do you invoke it with the letter 'E'? --Jeff

[slime-devel] (un)trace-package
by William Bland 10 Nov '06

10 Nov '06

I've found this feature quite useful in the couple of days since I implemented it. Thought it might be worth posting it to the list in case it's useful for others too. The feature adds slime commands (un)trace-package, with menu entries under "Debugging". These commands (un)trace all fbound symbols in the named package, which defaults to (slime-current-package). Attached is a diff against current cvs slime. It works for me with a recent cvs emacs and sbcl. Cheers, Bill. -- William Bland: http://www.abstractnonsense.org/ Lisp documentation: http://www.lispdoc.com/

[slime-devel] Redirecting output from slime-compile-and-load-file?
by Matt Pillsbury 09 Nov '06

09 Nov '06

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible, using SBCL and SLIME, to have the output (errors, warnings, et c.) from slime-compile-and-load-file directed somewhere other than the REPL? The *compilation notes* buffer seems to contain all the information I need, and it's sort of a pain to have those several screenfuls of output dumped to the REPL. I looked around for something like "slime- compile-file-hook", but if it's there I missed it. Many thanks, Matt

[slime-devel] :new-features command
by Brad Beveridge 08 Nov '06

08 Nov '06

Hi all, I'm trying to write a Common Lisp frontend that speaks to a Swank backend. I've just run into a bit of a problem. Let's assume that Swank sends the message (:new-features (:cffi :x86 cffi-features:darwin)). In my code I decode the length of a message then do (with-standard-io-syntax (read-from-string message)) SBCL's reader barfs on the symbol CFFI-FEATURES:DARWIN, because the host side doesn't have have the package CFFI-FEATURES. Which is fair enough. I'm guessing that the Emacs interpreter doesn't bother resolving the symbols, so there is no problem. Later on Slime prefixes ":" in front of the non-keyword symbols, presumably to make them into keyword symbols. Am I understanding this correctly? Is it possible to move the keyword interning to the Swank side? If so, I'll try to write a patch for that. Cheers Brad

[slime-devel] darcs repo
by Attila Lendvai 07 Nov '06

07 Nov '06

i've invested some time looking into tools keeping repos in sync, chosed this: http://www.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/Tailor for now the darcs repo is at: http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-wdim/darcs/slime/ and will also show up tomorrow at: http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi to get it without the extensive patch history (advised, darcsweb is there for looking into the past): darcs get --partial http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-wdim/darcs/slime/ this repo contains all my changes that are missing from cvs head and i'll also try to keep this repo in sync with cvs head, but it would be much better to move it under /project/slime and use darcs. but again, it's up to the dictator who has still not shown up. heh, give me write permission to slime and you won't miss him anymore... :) anyway, the links are there, use them as you like. -- - attila "- The truth is that I've been too considerate, and so became unintentionally cruel... - I understand. - No, you don't understand!
