[slime-devel] [Final CfPart] 6th European Lisp Workshop, July 6th, Genova, Italy
by Didier Verna 24 Jun '09

24 Jun '09

+------------------------------------------------------------+ | FINAL CALL FOR PARTICIPATION | | 6th European Lisp Workshop | | July 6, Genova, Italy - co-located with ECOOP 2009 | | http://elw.bknr.net/2009 | +------------------------------------------------------------+ Important Dates =============== ECOOP late registration deadline: July 03, 2009 6th European Lisp Workshop: July 06, 2009 Please note that registration must be done with ECOOP itself. There is a reduced registration fee for workshop-only attendance. The early registration deadline is in two days, so register now! See http://ecoop09.disi.unige.it/ for details. 2009 Special News ================= * Edi Weitz will give a keynote address on the use of his notorious open source libraries in commercial / industrial application. * The workshop is sponsored by ITA Software, Inc. Please visit them at http://www.itasoftware.com/ * This year, and for the first time, the workshop proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Overview ======== "...Please don't assume Lisp is only useful for Animation and Graphics, AI, Bio-informatics, B2B and E-Commerce, Data Mining, EDA/Semiconductor applications, Expert Systems, Finance, Intelligent Agents, Knowledge Management, Mechanical CAD, Modeling and Simulation, Natural Language, Optimization, Research, Risk Analysis, Scheduling, Telecom, and Web Authoring just because these are the only things they happened to list." -- Kent Pitman Lisp, one of the eldest computer languages still in use today, is gaining momentum again. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch, making it the ideal candidate for writing Domain Specific Languages. Common Lisp, with the Common Lisp Object System (CLOS), was the first object-oriented programming language to receive an ANSI standard and retains the most complete and advanced object system of any programming language, while influencing many other object-oriented programming languages that followed. This workshop will address the near-future role of Lisp-based languages in research, industry and education. We solicit contributions that discuss the opportunities Lisp provides to capture and enhance the possibilities in software engineering. We want to promote lively discussion between researchers proposing new approaches and practitioners reporting on their experience with the strengths and limitations of current Lisp technologies. Programme ========= In addition to Edi Weitz's keynote address, the workshop will feature four technical papers and two tutorials. Please visit the programme web page (http://elw2009.bknr.net/programme) for a detailed description. Organizers ========== Didier Verna, EPITA Research and Development Laboratory, Paris Charlotte Herzeel, Programming Technology Lab, Vrije Universiteit, Brussel Robert Strandh, LaBRI, University of Bordeaux I, France Christophe Rhodes, Goldsmiths College, University of London Hans Hübner, Software Developer, Berlin -- European Lisp Workshop, July 6th, Genova, Italy: http://elw.bknr.net/2009 Scientific site: http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~didier Music (Jazz) site: http://www.didierverna.com

[slime-devel] [ANNOUNCE] SLIME & swank RPMs available for Fedora
by Robert Uhl 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

I've packaged SLIME and swank for Fedora at: http://yum.octopodial-chrome.com/packages/cl-swank http://yum.octopodial-chrome.com/packages/emacs-slime http://yum.octopodial-chrome.com/packages/emacs-slime-el http://yum.octopodial-chrome.com/packages/xemacs-slime http://yum.octopodial-chrome.com/packages/xemacs-slime-el Probably the easiest thing to do is to install the octopodial-chrome package and then run 'yum install cl-swank emacs-slime.' They're packaged separately in order a) to follow Fedora guidelines b) provide more flexibility in deployment. -- Any programmer who fails to comply with the standard naming, formatting, or commenting conventions should be shot. If it so happens that it is inconvenient to shoot him, then he is to be politely requested to recode his program in adherence to the above standard. --Michael Spier

[slime-devel] Resident inspector for Clozure/OpenMCL
by Terje Norderhaug 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

In a previous email I provided code to make Clozure open the editor in emacs when user evaluates #'ed in a remote repl. In a similar fashion, the following can be added to swank-openmcl.lisp to make it provide a resident inspector when evaluating #'inspect in a remote repl: (push '(inspector::*default-inspector-ui-creation-function* . swank:inspect-in-emacs) swank:*default-worker-thread-bindings*) -- Terje Norderhaug

[slime-devel] M-. with one method
by William Halliburton 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

A lot of the time I have only one method defined and M-. on a method call displays a menu like: (No location) (DEFGENERIC FOO (BAZ)) /src/xyzzy.lisp (DEFMETHOD FOO BAZ) Is there a configuration that can just automatically jump directly to the only method available? Thank you.

[slime-devel] Docstrings
by Faré 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

A colleague at ITA wrote a lot of docstrings and comments for slime code. What is the best way to get them reviewed and either merged upstream or rejected? I'll try to merge the changes and send a patch shortly. And how does one get commit privileges?
