[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

[slime-devel] [patch] swank-allegro uses deprecated excl::walk
by Utz-Uwe Haus 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Dear all, the macroexpand-all implementation on ACL uses the deprecated excl::walk, instead of the currently suggested excl::compiler-walk. This might seem a minor thing, but actually leads to wrong macroexpansion (i.e. macroexpansions that are very different from what ACL actually does if you compile the code). (Allegro bug [spr39340] leading to ACL 8.2 patch 'code/loop.001' was hard to debug because of this) The attached trivial patch fixes the issue. Patch is against the swank currently in quicklisp, slime-20121125-cvs. Yours, Utz Original error message: --- CL-USER(3): (excl::walk 'foo) ; Autoloading for EXCL::WALK: ; Fast loading from bundle code/walker.fasl. ; Autoloading for EXCL::WALK: ; Fast loading from bundle code/walker.fasl. ; Autoloading for EXCL::WALK: ; Fast loading from bundle code/walker.fasl. Error: Attempt to load the walker module for excl::walk or excl::old-compiler-walk, which is deprecated in favor of the clos walker, excl::walk-form, and the newer version of excl::compiler-walk. Restart actions (select using :continue): 0: Load it anyway 1: retry the load of walker.fasl 2: skip loading walker.fasl 3: Return to Top Level (an "abort" restart). 4: Abort entirely from this (lisp) process. ---

[slime-devel] slime-who-calls and the *slime-xref* buffer
by Zach Beane 25 Nov '12

25 Nov '12

I'm using a SLIME snapshot from October 13th. When I use slime-who-calls to list the calls to a function (e.g. ql-http:fetch), the frame splits, and the window with the xref info shows something like this: /Users/xach/src/quicklisp-client/dist.lisp (DEFMETHOD ENSURE-SYSTEM-INDEX-FILE (DIST)) (DEFMETHOD ENSURE-LOCAL-ARCHIVE-FILE (RELEASE)) (DEFMETHOD ENSURE-RELEASE-INDEX-FILE (DIST)) (DEFMETHOD AVAILABLE-VERSIONS (DIST)) /Users/xach/src/quicklisp-client/dist-update.lisp INSTALL-DIST (DEFMETHOD AVAILABLE-UPDATE (DIST)) ... The cursor is placed at the beginning of the first line. As I move my cursor down in the xref window, the other window jumps to each use of the function that corresponds to the line containing the cursor. However, when the cursor reaches the second file pathname line, the xref buffer is replaced in the window with a buffer showing the file in question. I can no longer move up and down in the xref buffer to show calls to the function. I expected to be able to continue to use the xref buffer until I hit SPACE for slime-goto-xref, or used some other window management option to close it. Are my expectations reasonable? Have I possibly screwed up my local configuration? Is the behavior different in CVS slime? What would you recommend I do? Thanks, Zach

[slime-devel] slime's functionality for parsing def forms
by Mirko Vukovic 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Hello, I am writing documentation for a package. I use org mode. I would like to make this process a bit easier. So this is what I am thinking of: (1) In a source file, I have a buffer-local variable pointing to the documentation file (of org type). Above def statements like (2) (defXYZ foo ...) I have a comment line like this: (3) ;; user-interface (or ;; internal-functionality, or other) Then, executing the elisp function `goto-user-doc' in the def's body would combine the information on documentation file (1), type of documentation (3), and the `def' statement. It would take me to the documentation file, and position at the location of `foo'. With a prefix, the function would create the skeleton documentation for `foo' I am looking for slime's functionality to parse the `def' statement. It would be nice to obtain the lambda form as well. Where in the code should I look? Or, maybe there is an existing elisp package that does that? Thanks, Mirko

[slime-devel] Set *print-right-margin* depending on width of repl window (in slime-repl contrib)
by Marco Baringer 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

hi, The attached patch sets (binds) cl:*print-right-margin*, when evaluating a form from the repl via slime-repl-eval-string, to the width of the repl window. Not a big deal, but does make describe's output much cleaner (thanks to H4ans in #lisp for the inspiration). -- -marco
