[slime-devel] newbie question
by brian 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Hi all, I am not a lisp/emacs person. I am running emacs 23 in cygwin in winxp. I installed elpa. It more or less works. For instance when I do 'm-X package-list-packages' the various packages are listed. I know to use 'I' then 'x' to intstantiate them. For example, the 'bubbles' game package I can run m-X bubbles and some other packages fine. Slime is listed there as installed, and slime.el is listed under my emacs.d directory, but when I 'm-X slime ', reply "no match" Thanks Brian

My messages to slime-devel via gmane are being rejected by the spam detection software running on comon-lisp.net. No explanation is given. When I resent one message to slime-devel via SMTP, the message got accepted, but the To: field was set to undisclosed-recipients. This field was added by the mail software at common-lisp.net I then receive an unsolicited communication from Tim Johnson. |Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2010 09:42:19 -0900 |From: Tim Johnson <tim(a)johnsons-web.com> |Subject: Re: [slime-devel] Autodoc-arglist display (extract-cursor-marker), | Lispworks. | |Please don't send to "undisclosed recipients" |Please send directly to slime-devel site list. |Do not reply to this email.

[slime-devel] Autodoc-arglist display (extract-cursor-marker), Lispworks.
by Johannes Grødem 07 Jan '10

07 Jan '10

This doesn't work in Lispworks. It boils down to Lispworks signaling an error when you try to loop over something that is not a list. In this case a symbol, i.e.: (loop for (car . cdr) on form ...) when form is a symbol will simply loop over no items in SBCL, CLISP, etc, but will signal an error in Lispworks. I'm not sure which implementation is correct, but I think Lispworks' behaviour is slightly less surprising. I've attached a (hopefully correct) patch. It doesn't seem to break SBCL or CLISP, but I haven't tested with any other implementations. -- Johannes Grødem

[slime-devel] Readtables
by Seth Burleigh 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

Is there any current support for having the REPL respect reader macro characters? For example, if I define the [] pair to act like parentheses the repl shouldn't automatically send a multiline [ ] form to lisp until a matching ] has been found. On command line REPLs , reader macro characters aren't evaluated until a matching ] has been found.

[slime-devel] Proposed patch for asdf-loading under ALLEGRO
by Robert Goldman 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

ASDF operations using SLIME and SWANK won't work under Allegro's Modern (case-sensitive) lisp, because the symbol names are not in all caps as in ANSI lisp. Here's a small patch that makes it work under ACL mlisp as well as under normal ANSI lisps: Index: swank-asdf.lisp =================================================================== RCS file: /project/slime/cvsroot/slime/contrib/swank-asdf.lisp,v retrieving revision 1.7 diff -b -u -F '^(def' -r1.7 swank-asdf.lisp --- swank-asdf.lisp 23 Oct 2008 21:28:03 -0000 1.7 +++ swank-asdf.lisp 25 May 2009 16:40:10 -0000 @@ -26,7 +26,9 @@ (defun operate-on-system (system-name op Example: \(operate-on-system \"SWANK\" \"COMPILE-OP\" :force t)" (with-compilation-hooks () - (let ((operation (find-symbol operation-name :asdf))) + (let ((operation (or (find-symbol operation-name :asdf) + #+allegro + (find-symbol (string-downcase operation-name) :asdf)))) (when (null operation) (error "Couldn't find ASDF operation ~S" operation-name)) (apply #'asdf:operate operation system-name keyword-args))))

[slime-devel] [patch] Fix warning position detection for allegro CL 8.2-beta
by Andreas Fuchs 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

Hi, it seems the position format in the warning :PLIST slot has changed format in the upcoming Allegro CL release. Instead of (#P"somewhere" position), it's (#P"somewhere" position some-other-position) now, which leads to errors in the warning highlighting code. I've only ever observed these two values to be the same, so I patched the code to use the first value if there are more than one. If anyone with insight into how condition position detections for Allegro CL has a better solution, I'm sure it'll be appreciated. For now, this works for me on 8.2-beta and retains compatibility with older ACL releases. Cheers, -- Andreas Fuchs, (http://|im:asf@|mailto:asf@)boinkor.net, antifuchs

[slime-devel] Error in the documentation
by Cecil Westerhof 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

In paragraph 8.4 it says to use: (slime-setup '(inferior-slime-mode)) but then I get a 'Can not open' error. When using: (slime-setup '(inferior-slime)) I do not get an error. I would expect that then M-TAB would use slime-complete-symbol, but it uses complete-symbol. Is this an error, or is my expectation wrong? -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof
