I finally upgraded to a recent version of slime (2009-07-01 or so) and
found a couple of issues.
First, I use slime-typeout-frame and it references
slime-autodoc-start-timer (and other autodoc stuff). These don't seem
to exist anymore.
Second, I get the following error using xemacs 21.5.29.
These issues prevent me from using the current version.
And many thanks for making slime soooo useful,
Ray
