How does it work? I have tried invoking it in a CMUCL SLIME session with McCLIM loaded, passing clim-clx::clx-medium as an argument. I get a buffer containing:

Class Browser

[+] clim-clx::clx-medium

If I hit ENTER on "+", it turns into "X" and nothing else happens. Apparently, any other keystroke displays this error in the echo area:

Text is read only: "Attempt to change text outside editable field"

I use the latest SLIME and McCLIM CVS sources, CMUCL Snapshot 2005-03 and GNU Emacs 21.3.2 under Slackware Linux 10.0.
