imho swank-create-server is much more convient if it returns the port number it has opened. 4 line patch follows.

(defun create-swank-server (&optional (port 4005) (background *swank-in-background*))

• (setup-server port #'simple-announce-function background))

• (let ((real-port nil))
• (setup-server port

•              (lambda (port)
  

•                (setf real-port port))
  

•              background)
  

• real-port))

There is a race condition if the server is executed in a separate thread. I added an announce-fn argument, until we know how to best handle this situation.

p.s. - am i the only one actually using create-swank-server?

Apparently :-)
