[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] slime support for upcoming asdf3
by Faré 29 Jan '13

29 Jan '13

I've decided that there will be an ASDF 3 after all. Here's a patch to swank-asdf to make it work with ASDF 3 as well as ASDF 2 (still going back to 2.014.6). It also smoothes a few things for ASDF 2. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org The politicians have a most touching faith in technology — that it can make up for any dumb thing the politicians decide to do. — John McCarthy

[slime-devel] Fwd: datagram socket error on Allegro CL
by Dave Cooper 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Dear Slime list, This error probably falls in between Franz support and appropriate for this list, but maybe someone has seen it so I'll ask here. This is on Allegro CL 9.0 Windows, when trying to initialize the Slime connection: "creating a datagram socket resulted in error: (code 10013): Unknown error. [Condition of type excl:errno-stream-error] This appears to be some kind of permissions problem... has anyone seen it before? -- My Best, Dave Cooper, Genworks Support david.cooper(a)genworks.com, dave.genworks.com(skype) USA: 248-327-3253(o), 1-248-330-2979(mobile)

[slime-devel] Why not adopt asdf?
by Faré 20 Jan '13

20 Jan '13

Could SLIME adopt ASDF as a way to compile itself and other software? I understand that ASDF was quite insufficient for the needs of SLIME back in the bad old days, but these days, ASDF 2 (1) is available via (require "asdf") on *every* implementation that has been released in the last two years (i.e. not on corman gcl genera rmcl scl - though it runs on all of them) (2) already manages a decent FASL cache so SLIME doesn't have to. (3) can upgrade itself correctly if needed. ASDF has also improved a lot in the last few years. The upcoming release 2.27 formalizes a lot of the portability support that had accumulated through the years, improves on it, and adds features like condition control, saving of deferred warnings, image dump and restore, etc. In any case, that would be as much bad code duplication that could die. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org If debugging is the process of removing bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in. — Dijkstra

[slime-devel] Some love for swank-asdf.lisp
by Faré 20 Jan '13

20 Jan '13

This makes swank-asdf behave nicer on recent ASDFs. It also kills support for versions of ASDF older than 2.014.6. Quicklisp has used 2.014.6 for a year and a half, and finally upgraded to 2.26; I don't see any reason to support older versions than that. CLISP still ships with 2.011? If they don't upgrade their, you should install an upgraded version in your source registry. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker's dam is the history we make today. — Henry Ford

[slime-devel] hook around eval-for-emacs
by Anton Vodonosov 16 Jan '13

16 Jan '13

Hello. Could you add a hook around eval-for-emacs, as show in the attached patch? It would allow maintain custom context for all the slime requests. My use case is that I have this tool: https://github.com/avodonosov/local-package-aliases. It allows me to say that in my package $a:plist-alist means alexandria:plist-alist It is portable and in my opinion convenient, but as the aliases are handled by reader macro, slime does not understand tokens like $a:plist-alist, because it can't find package $a. In result slime completion, function arguments hints, go-to-definition doesn't work. The solution I found is that during evaluation of any slime request, if the package designated by swank::*buffer-package* has alias mapping, I temporary add all these aliases as nicknames to the corresponding packages. That's why I need a hook around evaluation of every expression received by swank::eval-for-emacs. With the swank patch applied, I add this hook: (defun swank-eval-for-emacs-hook (next-fn) (local-package-aliases::call-with-nicknames (local-package-aliases::alias-table-for swank::*buffer-package*) next-fn)) (push 'swank-eval-for-emacs-hook swank::*around-eval-for-emacs-hook*) and slime completion, go-to-definition, function parameters hints all start working. Best regards, - Anton
