I've been bitten by a bug in the older SBCL version I use that prevented me from seeing what a shenanigan I had straying in my code; here's a better patch: 2007-04-28 Tobias C. Rittweiler <INSERT-EMAIL-HERE> Removed support for completing to the longest compound pre- and suffix with the default completion method (C-c TAB, or just TAB on the REPL), because it has been causing trouble all the time, but didn't offer any real advantage besides niftiness. E.g.: previous behaviour: asdf:*com TAB => asdf:*compile-file--behaviour* now simply: asdf:*com TAB => asdf:*compile-file- For discussing on this subject, please see the mail with message-id <87y7l53lch.fsf@freebits.de> that was posted to slime-devel 2007-04-06, or alternatively: http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/slime-devel/2007-April/006087.html * swank.lisp (make-compound-prefix-matcher): New function. Abstracted from COMPOUND-PREFIX-MATCH. (compound-prefix-match): Use MAKE-COMPOUND-PREFIX-MATCHER. (compound-prefix-match/ci/underscores): Removed. (completions): Slight docstring modification, also added an examplary use case; use LONGEST-COMMON-PREFIX instead of LONGEST-COMPLETION. (completions-for-character): Use LONGEST-COMMON-PREFIX, and MAKE-COMPOUND-PREFIX-MATCHER. (longest-completion): Removed. Not needed anymore. (tokenize-completion): Likewise. (untokenize-completion): Likewise. (transpose-lists): Likewise. (longest-completion/underscores): Likewise. (tokenize-completion/underscores): Likewise. (untokenize-completion/underscores): Likewise.
