[slime-devel] cutting and pasting S-expressions from buffer to REPL
by Faheem Mitha 27 Dec '14

27 Dec '14

Hello everyone, I've recently started using SLIME with SBCl on Debian, where SLIME defaults to using SBCL, at least when it is installed. So far I am very impressed. I haven't been able to take off and fly yet, but I'm on the runway.:-) I'm particularly impressed by the underlining source which has compile errors, and doing a popup on mouseover feature. I don't know whose idea this was, but it is pretty damn cool. Does anyone know the history of this feature? So, I have a question about SLIME. When debugging, or indeed otherwise, I find it useful to copy and paste S-expressions from a buffer to the REPL. I've been using the mouse for this, which is decidedly sub-optimal. I hate using the mouse. I was thinking that it would be handy to have a command which would copy and paste S-expressions from a buffer to the REPL, while at the same time switching the buffer to the REPL. The S-expression would be chosen by having the cusor to the right of the closing expression. I'm not sure if this position has a name. I don't know if this command already exists. I could not find it in the manual. If it doesn't, could someone tell me what code would tell emacs to do this? My knowledge of Emacs programming is non-existent. Please CC me on any reply. Thanks. Regards, Faheem

I did not notice that function-lambda-list was modified to work again with macros. I'll test this later on as well. Thanks, -- Matt

Please test and report whether this works for you. With in swank-ecl.lisp: (defimplementation arglist (name) (let ((arglist (ext:get-annotation name :lambda-list nil))) (if (null arglist) :not-available arglist))) And your latest changes, it's very nice so far.

[slime-devel] cl-gtk2 compile/interpretation errors
by Toolis Patrick (Contractor) 25 Oct '12

25 Oct '12

I was wondering whether anybody had successfully run this GUI library in the Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs before. I am having difficulties with the use of bordeaux threads in compilation. I do not wish to set the shebang-features variable by recompiling sbcl, so I was wondering whether it is possible to run Windowing in a single thread (I understand that this does not work well practically). I was able to create a window once, but I cannot duplicate this. Errors about ³unithread² support occurred in ensure-gtk-main, and, when I tried load-system on cl-gtk2-gtk, I received a ³compile-op nil² error in the asdf.lisp¹s perform method. Interestingly, loading the gtk/gtk.package.lisp file worked. I understand that this is as much a cl-gtk issue as it is an issue with the interpreter/IDE, but the interpreter seems very impractical for use in this case.

[slime-devel] swank-ecl.lisp call-with-compilation-hooks

(defimplementation call-with-compilation-hooks (function) #-ecl-bytecmp (funcall function) #-ecl-bytecmp (handler-bind ((c:compiler-message #'handle-compiler-message)) (funcall function))) It seems that the function above is called twice; I suppose that one of both #-ecl-bytecmp should be #+ecl-bytecmp? Thanks, -- Matt

Although I don't get errors for other common > macros, I noticed that documentation is not shown for macros such as > PUSH or PUSHNEW as well, which this also explains. So I today had some time to do a small test and the following function indeed seems to work better in general. (defimplementation arglist (name) (let ((arglist (ext:get-annotation name :lambda-list nil))) (if (or (null arglist) (stringp arglist)) :not-available arglist))) Thanks again, -- Matt

[slime-devel] Slime-edit-definition to functions defined in top level let form?
by Masayuki Takagi 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hi, Are there any ways to jump to functions defined in top level let form by slime-edit-definition? For example below, I want to jump to the head of (defin foo ...) form, not that of top level (let ...) form when M-. on (foo): ----- (let (var) (defun foo () var))) (foo) ----- Thanks, Masayuki
