the attached patch allows you to get at any object ever returned by any form in the repl. Considering the way I use to repl this is rather conveinent (though maybe keeping a reference to every object ever returned is a bit much...). i have a few questions (more or less related to this): 1) anybody ever feel that they'd like to get at an objcet returned a while ago? 2) just out of idle curiosity how do you guys use the repl? i know some people basically don't use it, prefering to do everything from buffers, is that common? 3) how the hell do i override the M-RET binding? (in this patch the "magic" key is ?\, but i'd prefer M-RET as that'd be consist with slime-inspector-copy-down) 4) this patch will probbaly break badly when *print-base*, *print-pretty* or other printing variables have non default values. anyway, comments welcome. -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring.
