Typing M, U, L, <TAB> in the SLIME REPL produces "multiple-value|-" where | represents the cursor/point. Is this a bug? If it'd produce "multiple-value-|" then "multiple-value-bind" and such would be just a tad easier to type.

It puts the cursor at the point of the first ambiguous completion; blame MULTIPLE-VALUES-LIST.

Ah I see. But why "multiple-value|-" instead of "multiple-value|"? That would make typing both MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND and MULTIPLE-VALUES-LIST easier.

I find it easier to type m-v-b <TAB>.

Hey neat trick. Only 6 keystrokes. :)
