[slime-devel] Re: More newbie questions: process-interrupt in LispWorks

As far as I can tell, `C-c C-c' in the REPL gives me a rather uninformative backtrace, but doesn't actually interrupt the currently evaluating form. Which is kinda disappointing.

So how do you break the form that's running?

Recently we added a dedicated REPL thread and I think the "control thread" doesn't yet know about it. As a temporary fix you can revert listener-eval to:

(defslimefun listener-eval (string) (repl-eval string))

This might result in funny behavior with special variables, because each request is evaluated in a separate thread. I will look it into this at evening.
