[slime-devel] Standard output no longer appears in REPL
by Steven E. Harris 25 Jun '11

25 Jun '11

It's been a couple of months since I last used SLIME. Today I noticed that when I evaluate expressions in the REPL that write to *standard-output*, the output appears in the *inferior-lisp* buffer, but not in the REPL as it used to. I'm using GNU Emacs on Windows atop the CLISP Cygwin build. SLIME is up to date with CVS. Is there some new configuration required to restore the old behavior with output streams feeding into the REPL output? -- Steven E. Harris

[slime-devel] Slime vs Franz Eli
by Chris Kim 13 Apr '11

13 Apr '11

Hi, all, I've been using Slime on top of Franz ACL for quite a while. My experience with Slime is very positive and I like Slime better in every aspects except in following situations. 1. Slime debugger: It prints bunch of Slime (swank: ..... ) related messages that I'm not interested. It's always hard to trying to comb through messages that I'm interested. How can I turn Slime related messages off? 2. While debugging, evaulating expression does not print anything but only the retuned result. Can I have it print to the standard output, i.e., console? 3. Lack of REPL command: Franz Eli supports REPL commands, for example, ":proc" for listing processes, ":pa" to change package and so on. Is there way to add them in? Thank you very much and I appreciate your efforts making Slime the best list-emacs interface. -chris

[slime-devel] `slime-swank-port-file' format string
by MON KEY 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

`slime-swank-port-file's format string is generated from value of `emacs-pid' which returns an integer. Is there some reason why the format string shouldn't use "slime.%d" instead of "slime.%S"? -- /s_P\

[slime-devel] Execute REPL in main thread
by Tobias C Rittweiler 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

People on macosx are regularly bitten by some arcane restrictions in e.g. opengl that requires stuff to be executed in the main thread. Is it a too arcane use case, or do you think it warrants a new communication style that makes sure the main thread is used for the REPL? Actually there are more uses, for example I have a script "start-swank <port>" which I'd like to die in case something goes wrong with the Slime connection rather than be stuck in the native repl. -T.

[slime-devel] advanced source location recording
by Mark H. David 16 Nov '10

16 Nov '10

I have a fancy def type of macro -- lets call it DEFOPERATION, which takes a function name, args, and body, and eventually emits a corresponding DEFUN form to get the function defined. It gets sprinkled throughout the sources, but doesn't immediately invoke DEFUN. Instead, at some later point, another macro form is invoked -- lets say it's (DEFINE-DEFS-NOW), and that actually emits all the defuns. The problem is that when I do meta-. on any so-defined function, it takes me to the line in the source containing (DEFINE-DEFS-NOW). Not too interesting a place to go. What I really want is for it to take me to the corresponding DEFOPERATION. How can I make this work better in SLIME? Or, if it's an implementation thing, or partially so, what can I do specifically in my Lisps, specifically CCL and/or SBCL, to make this work better? Thanks, Mark

[slime-devel] `slime-space', `slime-show-arglist', `slime-echo-arglist' + STFU
by MON KEY 09 Nov '10

09 Nov '10

Hello slime-devels, I'd like to propose the following changes/additions to `slime-space' around `slime-echo-arglist'. As best I can gather these provide the quickest path to toggling the verbosity of `slime-space's invocation of `slime-echo-arglist' (which I find too distracting at times). I'd also like to suggest that various of slime-autodoc's variables be made permanent-local. AFAICT the emacs-devels (esp. their fearless leader) are increasingly less adverse to judicious use of and apportioning of permanent buffer-locals and as such Slime could be making better use of permanent-locals as well :) -- /s_P\ ;;; ============================== ;;; :CREATED <Timestamp: #{2010-10-31T16:15:03-04:00Z}#{10437} - by MON> (defvar *slime-echo-arglist-STFU* nil "When non-nil `slime-space' won't invoke `slime-echo-arglist' verbosely.\n `slime-echo-arglist-behave-or-back-to-your-cage' toggles `slime-echo-arglist' back on, and `slime-echo-arglist-STFU' shuts it up again.\n Evaluate `slime-show-arglist' explicitly if an arglist is needed.\n :SEE-ALSO `slime-echo-arglist-function'.\n►►►") ;; (make-variable-buffer-local '*slime-echo-arglist-STFU*) (put '*slime-echo-arglist-STFU* 'permanent-local t) (set-default '*slime-echo-arglist-STFU* nil) (defun slime-echo-arglist-behave-or-back-to-your-cage () "De-gimpify `slime-space's and allow `slime-echo-arglist' in current-buffer.\n Evaluate `slime-echo-arglist-STFU' to tone down the minibuffer noise.\n :SEE ALSO `*slime-echo-arglist-STFU*', `slime-echo-arglist-function'.\n►►►" (interactive) (with-current-buffer (current-buffer) (set (make-local-variable 'slime-echo-arglist-STFU) nil))) (defun slime-echo-arglist-STFU () "Silence `slime-space's invocation of `slime-echo-arglist' in current-buffer.\n Evaluate `slime-echo-arglist-behave-or-back-to-your-cage' to turn it back on.\n Evaluate `slime-show-arglist' explicitly if an arglist is needed. :SEE-ALSO `*slime-echo-arglist-STFU*', `slime-echo-arglist-function'.\n►►►" (interactive) (with-current-buffer (current-buffer) (set (make-local-variable 'slime-echo-arglist-STFU) t))) (defun slime-space (n) (interactive "p") (self-insert-command n) (when (and (not *slime-echo-arglist-STFU*) ;; <- redefined here.
