[slime-devel] slime apparently mis-reporting closed connection
by Samium Gromoff 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

After well into the second decade of slime-disconnect/slime-connect loop iteration (interweaved with normal operation) the emacs side of slime stopped recognising connection status. I`m doing a slime-disconnect, restarting swank and slime-connect, however immediately after this either a slime-load-file or a (load ...) in slime repl result in a message "Connection closed." i have some time before i will have to reboot the machine, and until then i can provide various forensics upon request... regards, Samium Gromoff

[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] cvs committed darcs changes
by Attila Lendvai 08 Jan '07

08 Jan '07

dear list, i've managed to create a seemingly complete darcs convert of the cvs repo which is available at: http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi (later today when the cron picks it up) darcs get --partial USER@common-lisp.net:/project/slime/public_html/darcs/slime darcs get --partial http://common-lisp.net:/project/slime/darcs/slime i've committed several fixes to the official cvs from this repo. due to the way the automated repo conversion works the ChangeLog file is not updated, but the cvs commit logs contain the full descriptions from the darcs patch. i don't know how to handle that, because all information is available in the darcs patches and hand-editing the ChangeLog file seems like a waste of time, but if the slime community would like to i can assemble some ChangeLog entries by hand after the syncs. i've got additional 3 patches that i delayed from pushing to cvs: Mon Dec 11 12:39:55 CET 2006 attila.lendvai(a)gmail.com * In got-xref buffer, switch the enter and space key bindings to follow the common "enter is primary action" behaviour Mon Dec 11 12:20:58 CET 2006 attila.lendvai(a)gmail.com * Added sldb-sexp-highlight-mode custom It controls the way sexp's are highlighted when pressing 'v' in the debugger. :mimic-paren-mode - mimic the value of 'paren-mode when available (xemacs only) :entire - highlight the entire sexp :sides - highlight only the first and last char Mon Dec 11 12:44:07 CET 2006 attila.lendvai(a)gmail.com * Set slime-fuzzy-completion-in-place enabled by default i think they should be in official, but they are more-or-less offending in changing the way stuff works currently. i think fuzzy should be enabled by default (for new user), and the same applies for the xref buffer space/enter. i always found that very confusing and different from everything else in emacs... the sldb sexp highlighting was removed as bloat, so i didn't commit it back (even if it works now on gnu emacs, too). but i do need a way to tell slime to highlight the entire expression when pressing 'v' because i hate looking for the carets. i think i won't commit this one except i'm explicitly asked to, but i'll commit the other two changes eventually unless someone vetoes them. i hope you find the committed changes useful, -- - attila "- The truth is that I've been too considerate, and so became unintentionally cruel... - I understand. - No, you don't understand!

Hi all: I now get a Protocol version mismatch error when starting Slime. This is after updating today from CVS... Never had this before. Googling revealed no solution.
