[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

Thanks, Jorge. Your suggestion below solved the problem. This was sent off the list; I am replying on the list so that everyone knows this case is closed, and with a Happy Ending ;-) Thanks to everyone. Happy Lisping.

[slime-devel] remote connection difficulties
by Philippe Sismondi 29 Dec '10

29 Dec '10

Greetings. I am attempting to connect from aquamacs emacs + slime on my Mac to a remote lisp on Ubuntu 10.10. These machines are both on my LAN. On the Mac I am using ccl 1.6 64-bit, with the slime/swank provided by aquamacs as of yesterday. This is described on the aquamacs site as Aquamacs-slime-2010-12-28.pkg.tgz. On Ubuntu 10.10 I am using ccl 1.7 32-bit, with yesterday's FAIRLY-STABLE slime/swank. I followed the instructions in the slime manual to connect locally on both machines. That is, I can start ccl in a terminal, fire up a swank server, and then connect from emacs/aquamacs by means of M-x slime-connect to the server on the same machine. On Ubuntu, I have an ssh server running. I can log in from the Mac to Ubuntu over ssh with no problems. In a terminal on my Mac I do the incantation suggested in the slime manual p.26, i.e. ssh -L4005:127.0.0.1:4005 david(a)10.0.1.6 The result of keying in the above is that I get a prompt for a password, and an apparently successful connection to the Ubuntu machine. It does open up a "visible" ssh session, i.e. I see an ubuntu prompt in my Mac terminal. It looks just like a regular ssh login; I don't know if that is what is expected. However, when I then do M-x slime-connect in aquamacs and connect to 127.0.0.1 port 4005 I get this message in aquamacs: Lisp connection closed unexpectedly: connection broken by remote peer. And in the ssh terminal session on the Mac to Ubuntu I see this: channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused I know *nothing* about ssh, or for that matter networking generally. For example, I have no idea why we need to "fool" emacs into thinking it is talking to 127.0.0.1. However, this appears to me to be an ssh problem, as a wild guess. Any suggestions? Does the failure to connect have anything to do with ccl/swank/slime, or do I have some ssh pondering to do? If I should be attaching some kind of log or other info that I do not know about, please let me know. Best, - Phil -

[slime-devel] Trying to start up SLIME with SBCL on Windows XP
by George Lindholm 28 Dec '10

28 Dec '10

Greetings. I have installed SBCL and Emacs on Windows XP, and have pulled the current CVS files for SLIME, added path settings to .emacs, and turned the key. It seems to start working, but then SBCL apparently tries to find a file named “ASDF-extensions.lisp”. I looked through all the files I downloaded related to SBCL, Emacs, and SLIME, but could not find that file. I also have googled to see if others had this problem with SBCL, but to no avail. I apologize if the SLIME list is not the appropriate venue for the questions, so if there is a better one please let me know. Questions: Is ASDF-extensions.lisp supposed to be installed with SLIME? If so, where can I get a copy? If not, any ideas where it comes from? Thanks. George

[slime-devel] SLIME crashes XEmacs lately
by Tim Howe 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

Hi all, I've been using SLIME in XEmacs for years now and am very happy with it. Recently, however, I updated from CVS and XEmacs started unrecoverably[1] freezing up from time to time. I didn't connect the two until more recently because it didn't seem to be related to doing anything in particular. Based on the stack trace I get when I am eventually forced to kill it, I'm guessing it's related to the following set of changes: 2010-08-22 Stas Boukarev <stassats(a)gmail.com> * slime.el (slime-xemacs-recompute-modelines): Add `slime-xemacs-recompute-modelines' to `pre-idle-hook', this solves the problem of synchronization of modelines. Thanks to Aidan Kehoe. 2010-08-21 Stas Boukarev <stassats(a)gmail.com> * slime.el (slime-recompute-modelines): Recompute modelines only for visible buffers. Kludge: modeline can be out of sync if the buffer becomes visible and no slime/lisp interaction took place yet. Patch by Raymond Toy. (slime-search-buffer-package): Revert, with the above change caching shouldn't be necessary. I took a glance at the relevant functions in slime.el but nothing jumped out at me. Then again, I'm only moderately proficient in (X)Emacs Lisp. Gentoo app-editors/xemacs-21.4.22-r1 XEmacs 21.4 (patch 22) "Instant Classic" [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux, Mule) SLIME 2010-12-10 (although it started when I updated to 2010-11-13 and that's when I saved the backtrace) Any help tracking down what could be going on or how to fix it would be greatly appreciated. With some pointers I'm happy to help code/test a fix. Lisp backtrace follows: # (unwind-protect ...) (when (or (symbol-value-in-buffer ... object) (symbol-value-in-buffer ... object)) (with-current-buffer object (setq redraw-modeline ...))) # bind (object) (lambda (object) (setq object (window-buffer object)) (when (or ... ...) (with-current-buffer object ...)))(#<window on "science-rumors.org" 0x38b5c>) # bind (walk-windows-current walk-windows-start which-devices which-frames minibuf function) walk-windows((lambda (object) (setq object (window-buffer object)) (when (or ... ...) (with-current-buffer object ...))) never visible) # bind (redraw-modeline) (let (redraw-modeline) (walk-windows (lambda ... ... ...) (quote never) (quote visible)) (and redraw-modeline (redraw-modeline t))) slime-xemacs-recompute-modelines() # (condition-case ... . error) # (condition-case ... . error) # (catch top-level ...) Footnotes: [1] Sometimes it does actually come back if I keep hitting C-g, sometimes I only get the scrollbars and similar widgets to reappear, sometimes it doesn't help at all. -- Tim Howe http://quadium.net/~vsync/ A certain woman entered a neighbour's house to bake bread there, and a dog suddenly barked at her, but the owner of the house said to her: "Do not be afraid of the dog as its teeth are gone." She, however, said to him: "Take thy kindness and throw it on the thorns, for the embryo has already been moved from its place."

[slime-devel] slime-interrupt and native interrupt condition
by Tobias C Rittweiler 15 Dec '10

15 Dec '10

I wonder if it was a bad idea if the CL code behind slime-interrupt first tried to signal the implementation's native interrupt condition so people have a chance to do (handler-case (loop) (sb-sys:interactive-interrupt () (print-stats))) -T.
