[slime-devel] Switching repl threads
by Osei Poku 10 Sep '07

10 Sep '07

Hi, I have sbcl 1.0.7 running remotely on machine A and I initially connected to it from emacs/slime on another machine B. I would like to start an emacs on machine A, and attach to the repl thread that is visible on machine B's emacs/slime repl. The problem is that machine B is my laptop and I executed a function that will take about 24 hrs. I would disconnect the slime connection, but, that will terminate the repl-thread that currently executing the long function. Can I keep this thread alive *and* disconnect the slime connection? Thanks, -- Osei Poku PhD Student, ECE Carnegie Mellon University

[slime-devel] Questions about latest slime (where did feature X go?)
by Jonathon McKitrick 09 Sep '07

09 Sep '07

I took some time to go over the latest docs and then update my emacs startup settings for slime, but I have a couple of unresolved questions. - Is TAB bound to slime-indent-and-complete-symbol by default or not? I thought that it was, but removing this key binding definition reverted to simple indentation behavior. - It seems autodoc mode is not working correctly when the mark is over a symbol that used to have its value displayed. I found slime-use-autodoc-mode but it does not have documentation and cannot be set or called. - What is the correct way to set a key binding: with define-key global-map, define-key slime-mode-map, or is there a different way? Thanks! -- jcm(a)sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org

[slime-devel] slime-banner.el provides 'slime-startup-animation
by Stelian Ionescu 08 Sep '07

08 Sep '07

Hello, I'm running emacs 23 (the emacs-unicode branch) and because slime-banner.el provides 'slime-startup-animation neither (require 'slime-banner) nor (require 'slime-startup-animation) works. Should slime-banner.el perhaps provide 'slime-banner ? I've attached a patch with this change -- Stelian Ionescu a.k.a. fe[nl]ix Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.

[slime-devel] Use of variable `buffer-name' in slime-display-message
by Steven E. Harris 08 Sep '07

08 Sep '07

When I create a fresh buffer with no backing file, switch into lisp-mode, and try evaluating a form via SLIME, I see the following error (in XEmacs): ,---- | Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable buffer-name) | (get-buffer-window buffer-name) | (if (get-buffer-window buffer-name) (delete-windows-on buffer-name)) | (when (get-buffer-window buffer-name) (delete-windows-on buffer-name)) | slime-display-message("=> ONE-OF-PROBABILITY") `---- The function `slime-display-message' uses the free variable `buffer-name' here. Should it be using the /function/ `buffer-name' instead? -- Steven E. Harris

[slime-devel] Updated docstring for DEFINTERFACE
by Matt Pillsbury 08 Sep '07

08 Sep '07

The documentation string for the DEFINTERFACE macro in "swank- backend.lisp" seems to have gotten pretty far out of sync with what DEFINTERFACE does. This patch provides an updated docstring that is hopefully more accurate. Cheers, Matt
