forwarding [Sam Steingold] from CLISP-general mailing list:
CLISP SLIME users might want to grab CLISP cvs head and nag SLIME developers to use it too: (documentation 'symbol 'sys::file) now returns a list of (file start-line end-line). file = file where the symbol was defined start-line and end-line are the locations in the file. note that when file is "foo.fas", line numbers should still point to "file.lisp"!
if the slime users & developers are happy with this, this functionality will be exported (i.e., EXT:FILE instead or SYS::FILE).
comments are welcome.
maybe this feature could help navigating through source files? and maybe e.g. for debugging purposes?
