[slime-devel] slime-compiler-macroexpand problem
by Stelian Ionescu 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

slime-compiler-macroexpand and slime-compiler-macroexpand, when invoked in a macroexpansion buffer, replace the entire buffer instead of replacing only the expanded form -- Stelian Ionescu a.k.a. fe[nl]ix Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.

[slime-devel] (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :swank)(create-server) doesn't load contribs.
by Numeromancer 09 Mar '08

09 Mar '08

Hi, Just a note, and an implied question, I guess. I start a web server using sbcl, and start a swank server in it. I just started using a later version of slime from cvs (SLIME 2008-02-28). Slime no longer loads the contribs, as you know, which caused the server to generate an error when connecting to it remotely from an emacs which is using the contribs. .sbclrc used to say: (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :swank) (swank:create-server :port 4006 :dont-close t) And it worked. I now must say: (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :swank) (swank-loader:init :load-contribs t) (swank:create-server :port 4006 :dont-close t) I thought I would mention this here, as I could find nothing in the docs, or anything in the changelog, news, or readme files which mentioned this. If anyone can say "You should be doing it this way instead...", that'd be good. Could swank.asd have something like this? (just off the top of my head, untested): (defclass swank-with-contribs-loader-file (swank-loader-file) ()) (defmethod asdf:operation-done-p ((o asdf:compile-op) (f swank-loader-file)) t) (defmethod asdf:perform ((o asdf:load-op) (f swank-with-contribs-loader-file)) (load (asdf::component-pathname f)) (funcall (read-from-string "swank-loader::init") :reload (asdf::operation-forced o) :delete (asdf::operation-forced o) :load-contribs t :setup nil)) (asdf:defsystem :swank-with-contribs :default-component-class swank-with-contribs-loader-file :components ((:file "swank-loader"))) I know there is a better way to do this.

Does one exist for Mercurial, and > do you have experience using it? In Emacs 23 (CVS Emacs) the vc interface supports hg, git, bzr and maybe others. But that is rather new and has still some rough edges. E.g. the vc-annotate for hg only shows the the revision number and the date but not the author who wrote the line. Another annoyance is that they synchronously call subprocesses the find-file-hook, apparently to display the version number in the mode-line. This can be rather slow (not so much for SLIME, but for big repos). To create a changeset one must mark the relevant files in the vc-dired buffer and the marked files will then be committed together (not individually as in older versions). The diff command seem to work but it doesn't honor `diff-switches' properly. I think the log command works only on one file if called in the buffer or on multiple files if called in the vc-dired buffer. There are no Emacs equivalents for the status, pull, and push commands. For git there exist some other Emacs packages, one is pcl-cvs-a-like. I wasn't impressed by those. The bzr-mode.el shipped with Bazaar was even written by the illustrious Luke Gorrie. Like his darcs-mode.el it's simple but easily hackable. Currently, I use hg primarily from the command line. Helmut.

[slime-devel] SoC 2008: any projects you'd like to get funded?
by Heow Eide-Goodman 05 Mar '08

Guys, Once again, LispNYC is getting ready for Google's Summer of Code. Since we all use and love SLIME, getting a project funded would be great. If you have any project ideas, drop us a line here ( http://lispnyc.org/soc-idea.clp ), we're also looking for a few good mentors. :-) Cheers, - Heow -- ;;-------------------------------------------------------------------------- (defun reply-to-this-email (addresses) (apply 'concatenate 'string (mapcar #'reverse (nth (random (length addresses)) addresses)))) (reply-to-this-email '(("woeH" "@" "cnIskeeGahplA" "."

[slime-devel] Fancy inspector wishlist items
by Nikodemus Siivola 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Loading the fancy inspector overrides the SBCL specific EMACS-INSPECT method for functions. It would be nice if it didn't, but rather co-operated with it. At some point in the past C-I worked on presentations, which it doesn't anymore. This was very useful, and it would be nice to have it back in the fancy inspector. While I don't miss the full DWIM magic of C-I, there is one thing I would like there: if the point is at the start of a list starting with FOO, insert #'FOO instead of FOO in the minibuffer. Cheers, -- Nikodemus

Sorry for bothering you guys. I found a solution, but I don't think it's the most elegant one. What I did was I changed the call to `pop-to-buffer' to `switch-to-buffer' in `slime-hide-inferior-lisp-buffer' like so: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- --- slime.el.orig 2008-03-04 12:42:05.000000000 +0800 +++ slime.el 2008-03-04 12:42:41.000000000 +0800 @@ -1528,7 +1528,7 @@ (window (set-window-buffer window repl-buffer)) (t - (pop-to-buffer repl-buffer) + (switch-to-buffer repl-buffer) (goto-char (point-max)))))) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there a better way to do this? -- Rommel M.

[slime-devel] SLIME and new windows
by Rommel Martinez 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

How do I make SLIME *not* create a new window when it connects to a Swank server via `slime-connect'? Specifically, how do I make SLIME switch to the REPL buffer (output buffer) using the current window? Thanks in advance. -- Rommel M. Martinez <ebzzry(a)gmail.com>
