[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] Indent IF*
by Gábor Melis 13 May '11

13 May '11

Hello Attached is a hack based on the code that indents LOOP (in contrib/slime-indentation.el) to indent IF*. I'm aware that few people hack on code with IF* but to them it's quite useful. You need to load the slime-indentation contrib and this file. It does this: (if* (eq t nil) then () () elseif (dsf) thenret x else (balbkj) (sdf)) Yes, that was the spec and the user doc. Cheers, Gabor

[slime-devel] Slime vs Franz Eli
by Chris Kim 14 Apr '11

14 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] cl-workbooks in emacs?
by Mirko Vukovic 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

This is not a slime question, but it is about emacs & common lisp. I use slime + clisp and sbcl for my work. I use REPL as an environement for interactive data analysis. I need to produce an annotated log of the analysis. I am looking for a workbook type of file mode, in which I would enter into a file: - text (with markup rules such as in muse-mode or org-mode) - valid CL code At the end of the day I could `publish' the file (as an html, pdf, latex) document which would contain - the text - The CL code (formatted appropriately) - Results of executing the CL code. Some of my commands produce graphics via gnuplot, and there should be conventions+intelligence to dump these into a png format and insert into the published file. Right now, I am doing it very crudely by - creating a .lisp file - Writing text in #| |# blocks in emacs' muse mode. - CL stuff in rest of the buffer - Executing C-u C-c C-x to paste CL results into the buffer - modifying things a bit by hand - and leaving it at that. Are there any packages that can help me accomplish this? Thanks, Mirko

[slime-devel] Allegro debugger fix
by mega＠retes.hu 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

In the most recent alpha version of Allegro CL the arglist of the internal function INT-NEWEST-FRAME has changed slightly causing the slime debugger itself to signal an error.

[slime-devel] Documentation missing
by Marko Kocić 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

HI all, I was playing a bit with slime and its documentation facilities, and constructed quickly a small function to find all symbols that are not documented. The results are the following: ECL - CL package - 707 documented, 271 undocumented ECL - EXT package - 45 documented, 376 undocumented SBCL - CL package - 685 documented, 293 undocumented CCL - CL package - 608 documented, 370 undocumented ABCL - CL package - 8 documented, 970 undocumented Winner by number of documented symbols is ECL, while CCL, and especially SBCL subjectively seems to have more elaborate docstrings, with longer explanations. Is anyone aware is it possible to automatically parse hyperspec in order to create docstring that can be added to sources later? Or, to teach slime to use hyperspec as a fallback for CL symbols that are not documented in implementation? Code used to count: (defun documented-p (sym) (let ((vdoc (swank::documentation sym 'variable)) (fdoc (swank::documentation sym 'function))) (or vdoc fdoc))) (length (loop for s being the external-symbols of (find-package :cl) when (documented-p s) collect s)) Regards, Marko Kocić

[slime-devel] diff in calling external commands from slime or terminal window
by Mirko Vukovic 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

I am trying to understand (and fix) the following problem. I am running clisp on cygwin & windows. Slime is running from windows' emacs. If I launch clisp from a terminal (either cygwin's or windows' cmd.exe), commands such as > (ext:run-shell-command "pwd") work. So, it does not seem to matter where I call clisp from. But if I try the same from within slime, I get NIL. The value of `inferior-lisp-program' points to the clisp executable: c:\cygwin\bin\clisp.exe Thanks, Mirko

But I find it then easier to link clisp to stuff that has been developed on linux (that involves using cffi for example). Anyways, I made some modest progress today, but hit another roadblock. I figured that if I call clisp from the windows command prompt as follows: bash -c clisp clisp is launched in a proper cygwin environment, and various commands work as expected. In particular (relevant for discussion that follows) all the paths are cygwin paths (meaning the usual unix-like ones, such as /usr, /usr/lib, /home, etc). Dribble works too. I tried to use the same call with slime by specifying the inferior-lisp-program as c:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe -c clisp clisp starts OK, but swank breaks with ... ;; Loading file C:\Documents and Settings\977315\My Documents\.swank.lisp ... ;; Loaded file C:\Documents and Settings\977315\My Documents\.swank.lisp *** - OPEN: Directory #P"C:\\DOCUME~1\\977315\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\" does not exist The following restarts are available: ABORT :R1 Abort main loop But that is not correct. clisp seems to live in the windows world, because all the paths are listed as windows paths. Whereas if I start clisp from a cygwin bash window, or using the command above, clisp uses cygwin's paths. Confused ... Any ideas from the slime wizards?
