[slime-devel] slime with allegro 8.1
by Madhu 31 Jul '11

- Xref is broken: cond: Error: not finished with #<EXCL.SCM::SOURCE-PART :XXX-YYY :OPERATOR 43246 45118> - Debugger is unnavigable: mostly spam from only swank-debugger frames. I do not see any mention in the Changelog that support for older versions have been dropped, so I assume that older versions have broken inadvertantly. --- Madhu (going back to ELI ...)

[slime-devel] slime-setup defaults [was: slime-repl buffer never appears]

[slime-devel] slime-repl buffer never appears
by Tim Showalter 06 Jul '11

Hi. I'm an occasional slime user. I got a new computer and wanted to set up sbcl and slime. I'm running Ubuntu 11.04, and the Ubuntu versions work. So naturally I uninstalled them and installed from source. With slime on my load-path, and (require 'slime) (slime-setup) in my init file, and inferior-lisp-program set to the binary, M-x slime doesn't quite work right. The *inferior-lisp* buffer starts up, swank says it's starting (I see the compilation) but the repl buffer never appears. I do eventually get the "Connected." message, but I never see the repl buffer. What am I missing? Thanks very much! Tim
