* apply the patch attached to any recent slime
Those are git patches and apparently neither M-x epatch nor the command line version of patch can work with them. So I haven't actually tried it.
You can apply the patch with patch -p1 < ~/Downloads/slime-trace-dialog.diff ...and two conflicts will results in contrib/slime-fancy.el and swank.lisp. I don't know why, but these hunks can be applied by opening the patch file in emacs, cd-ing to the slime dir and applying the offending hunks manually. Also the patch file had DOS newlines for some reason. But you're right, and since I have to adjust to 80 characters as well, I will provide patches from the cvs tree with cvs diff -u (or do you prefer any other command?)
I don't see any other obvious problems.
That's promising :) Thanks, João
