Rittweiler tcr@freebits.de + + The inspector page layout has changed slightly. Before the header + looked like + + A proper list. + [type: CONS] + ------------------- + + It now looks like + + #<CONS {B3DBD39}>: + A proper list. + -------------------- + + Rationale is to have a "presentation link" to the currently + inspected object itself, to copy it down to the REPL via `M-RET'. + This is mostly useful when trying to get a value from the Slime + Debugger to the REPL, which you can do by inspecting the value + first by `i', and then using `M-RET' on the object representation + in the new header layout. + + Such a "presentation link" existed already but was removed in + 2007-08-23. The old behaviour was to have the title ("A proper + list" in the above example) to contain the link. I decided to make + the link more explicit. + + * swank.lisp (inspect-object): Now additionally returns a + string-representation of the object itself, and an inspector id + for it. Removed returning its type as this is implicit in the new + string representation. + + * slime.el (slime-open-inspector): Adapted for new header layout. + 2007-10-22 Tobias C.
