Hello list,
I have noticed a bug when using slime-autodoc. I've duplicated it on
GNU Emacs 23.0 with Lispworks 5.1.1 on Windows, and GNU Emacs 21.4
with SBCL 1.0.15 on Linux.
If I enter the form (either in the REPL or in a buffer):
`(flet ((,nil ())) (cond (,nil)))
^----^
then when I move the point into the indicated sexp, I get a "comma
not inside a backquote" error from the Lisp.
The following forms don't trigger the error:
`(flet ((nil ())) (cond (,nil)))
`(flet ((,nil ())) ,nil (cond (,nil)))
The offending event is:
(:emacs-rex
(swank:format-arglist-for-echo-area ",nil"
:operator nil
:highlight nil
:print-right-margin 1000
:print-lines 1)
"COMMON-LISP-USER" :repl-thread 156)
I had a bit of a look with the debugger and got as far as
SLIME-AUTODOC-LOCAL-ARGLIST calling SLIME-FIND-BOUND-FUNCTIONS
before giving up. Hopefully these clues will help someone more
familiar with SLIME's internal workings.
Cheers,
John :^P
