[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] broken clojure REPL
by Cyrus Harmon 21 May '10

21 May '10

FWIW, the following patch broke the clojure REPL (*inferior-lisp* still works, but not the fancy REPL): commit addc5be70a489cdc8ed555a2fed7273040da196e Author: Tobias C. Rittweiler <trittweiler(a)common-lisp.net> Date: Sat Oct 31 22:13:55 2009 +0000 * slime.el (slime-inside-string-p, slime-inside-comment-p) (slime-inside-string-or-comment-p): New. * swank-match.lisp: New file. Contains very simple pattern matcher from the CMU AI archive. * swank-loader.lisp: Compile swank-match.lisp. * swank.lisp: Make SWANK package use new SWANK-MATCH package. * slime-autodoc.el, swank-arglists.lisp: Large parts were rewritten. Autodoc is now able to highlight &key parameters, and parameters in nested arglists. * slime-parse.el, slime-c-p-c.el, slime-highlighting-edits.el: Adapted to changes. the symptom is the following: ; SLIME 2009-10-31 user> 3 3 user> (+ 3 4) at which point it just hangs... nothing (helpful) in *messages* or *inferior-lisp*. Reverting to the previous commit fixes the problem. It's really nice to be able to use git to quickly bisect the history to find the offending commit. Not so nice when that commit is >2k lines :( TCR, any ideas? thanks, cyrus

[slime-devel] Error in swank-fancy-inspector when inspecting network streams [with patch]
by Russ Tyndall 14 May '10

14 May '10

When attempting to inspect a network-stream of underlying type SB-SYS:FD-STREAM I always get the following error: Error: The value NIL is not of type PATHNAME. I wrote a small patch to swank-fancy-inspector to ignore errors coming from accessing the pathname slot and not render the action link (visit file and show current position) when we do not have a pathname.

[slime-devel] cursor position after an error from lisp
by Ram Bhamidipaty 14 May '10

14 May '10

Hi, In in the slime repl if I evaluate an expression that causes an error - slime props open an sldb window. When I hit 'q' in the sldb window my cursor is not returned to the end of the repl buffer. I am using xemacs 21.5.29 with sbcl Does anyone else see this? Is there a simple fix? Thanks for any info. -Ram

[slime-devel] SLIME's readline problem?
by 亀田馬志 29 Apr '10

29 Apr '10

Hi. I saw something strange about SLIME and tried googling about it. But couldn't find any clues. Please allow me to post here. I read "Let Over Lambda", a book about macros, and noticed function, named with "!", on a file couldn't be recognized nor compiled through using SLIME. The codes are listed below, using some utilities from the book "On Lisp", written by Paul Graham. ;; *-SIMBOL-P-GENERATOR > ;; (defmacro *-symbol-p-generator (str) > ;; (let ((len (1+ (length str))) > ;; (init-part (string-upcase str))) > ;; `(defun ,(intern (concatenate 'string init-part "-SYMBOL-P")) (s) > ;; (and (symbolp s) > ;; (> (length (symbol-name s)) ,len) > ;; (string= (symbol-name s) > ;; ,init-part > ;; :start1 0 > ;; :end1 ,len))))) > > ;; G-BANG-SYMBOL-PREDICATE > ;; (*-symbol-p-generator "g!") > > (defun g!-symbol-p (s) > (and (symbolp s) > (> (length (symbol-name s)) 2) > (string= (symbol-name s) > "G!" > :start1 0 > :end1 2))) > > ;; DEFMACRO-WITH-G-BANG! > (defmacro defmacro/g!

The function O!-SYMBOL-P was THERE on the file. So I check sbcl repl directly on my bash; in that case, the file could be loaded and compiled without any problem. Therefore, SLIME must have the problem. Actually, if I made the function on REPL on SLIME, NO PROBLEM. The problem is occured when I made a file, load, and compile THE FILE. I checked the file, then I found both g!-symbol-p and o!-symbol-to-g!-symbol are not recognized by SLIME, either. Then, I concluded functions with "!" are not recognized by SLIME. Is there any solution about that? I use Ubuntu 9.10, SBCL and Emacs 23 provided by Ubuntu. Also I use cvs version of SLIME(newest). Here are my lines about SLIME on my .emacs ;;======================================================================= > ;; SLIME > ;;======================================================================= > (setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/sbcl") > (add-to-load-path-recompile > (expand-file-name "~/slime")) > (add-hook 'lisp-mode-hook (lambda () > (inferior-slime-mode t) > (global-set-key "\C-cH" 'hyperspec-lookup) > (push 'ac-source-slime ac-sources) > (auto-complete-mode))) > > (require 'slime) > > (eval-after-load "slime" > '(progn > (message "Slime configuration...") > (slime-setup '(slime-scratch > slime-editing-commands > slime-fancy > slime-repl > slime-asdf > anything-slime))) > ) > ;; > (setq slime-net-coding-system 'utf-8-unix > ;; inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/sbcl" > lisp-indent-function 'common-lisp-indent-function > slime-complete-symbol*-fancy t > slime-complete-symbol-function 'slime-fuzzy-complete-symbol > slime-startup-animation t) > > (slime-autodoc-mode) > ;; > Thanks cametan P.S. I also found SLIME's REPL don't recognized reader macros. Though making reader macro with #foo, SLIME says something like "incomplete input". P.S.2. The author of LOL says he hates Emacs. Then, if he spelled and cursed SLIME, I would give all up.

[slime-devel] slime "hangs" when iterate package is used on SBCL
by Andrea Taverna 28 Apr '10

28 Apr '10

Hi, I think I came across a (possibly) new bug in SLIME, here is the description: SLIME: cvs snapshot 24/04/2010 Emacs: 23.1.1 SBCL: 1.0.37 ITERATE: 1.4.3 system: Linux Fedora Core 12 x86 32bit Description: the following code ;-------%<-------%<-------%<-------%< (require :iterate) (use-package :iterate) ;-------%<-------%<-------%<-------%< evalueted in either inferior-lisp or slime-repl causes slime to "hang", i.e. after the use command the repl prompt stays unresponsive, I tried waiting several minutes. Commands like slime-interrupt and slime-quit-lisp don't work either, I have to manually kill the sbcl process to quit lisp. Both emacs and sbcl are alive and waiting, in fact it does seem the computer is just waiting me to give some input. The same code evaluated without using iterate's package or inside a unix terminal works without a glitch. TIA Andrea

[slime-devel] Debugging variables
by Zadirion Fay 27 Apr '10

27 Apr '10

Hello, I am new to slime and Lisp in general. I did try searching google before posting this but I can not seem to find any answer to this, so here goes: (defun sample-function (x y) (if (> (+ x y) 15) (+ x y) (error "The sum of x and y must be greater than 15"))) (sample-function 3 4) Given the above code, I can not seem to be able to display the value of x or y for that matter once the debugger kicks in on the line with the error. Once inside the debugger, I tried pressing 'i' for inspect and entered x. Debugger replied with "unbound variable x blabla". Pressed 'e' for eval and wrote (sb-debug:var x) with same result (using sbcl here). Here is exactly what the debugger posts: The sum of x and y must be greater than 15 [Condition of type SIMPLE-ERROR] Restarts: 0: [ABORT] Abort compilation. 1: [ABORT] Return to SLIME's top level. 2: [CLOSE-CONNECTION] Close SLIME connection 3: [ABORT] Exit debugger, returning to top level.
