[slime-devel] Re: some conveniences for slime-repl

I have found a few things that I miss in the SLIME repl:

• a key binding to erase all input before point; much like comint's C-c C-u. alternatively,

C-c C-o will clear the output of the last expression, and C-c C-t will clear the whole buffer.

• a key binding to jump to just after the input marker; and

You mean like C-a but working from any line? Maybe a job for C-M-u (backward-up-list)?

• slightly different RET handling.

currently, SLIME will insert the RET at (point) and then send the line if I am inside a complete sexp. this can lead to badness like:

ZY> (un trace my-function)

IIUC this behaviour is recently improved. If you press RET and have a complete sexp, we don't insert a newline anymore. Can you try the latest and see if it's right for you?
