Can you please test the following scenario with your origial setup, and let me know if you get a different result?
From m3fybn7v8c.fsf@robolove.meer.net
(setq slime-complete-symbol-function 'slime-complete-symbol* slime-complete-symbol*-fancy nil pop-up-windows nil pop-up-frames nil)
In the slime-repl buffer at the prompt, put the string "swank::c-s" and type TAB or M-TAB, and choose any item, say swank::compilation-speed. On finding your way back to the repl buffer, you see the garbled text.
For eg; if the string was "(swank::c-s" M-TAB,
(or Esc Tab)
on finding your way back to the repl buffer, you'll see: "swank::compilation-speed-s" and no paren.
Does your input get garbled? (I had convinced myself before posting that fix that the existing code was wrong, and wish to know what I'm missing, Thanks) -- Madhu
