I've been using github slime continuously for a few days and everything I normally use seems to be working fine, but today I tried to use multiple REPLs by loading slime-mrepl in my .emacs file, which is available in the contrib folder. When I do M-x slime-open-listener
Hmmm, the actual command appears to be `slime-new-mrepl'. Have you tried that? I have and it opens a new repl (though apparently a limited one).
That actually works. I'll give it a try to see if I can use it the way I want,
Anyway, the documentation does need to be updated, but I don't know enough of the mrepl contrib right now to do it. I guess I could at least fix that entry point tip though.
The way to invoke it is documented in slime-mrepl also, which probably should be corrected.
Also, as I was scouring the slime html documentation looking for clues about multiple REPLs I noticed several sections where the text was single-columned, which didn't look very readable. The sections I noticed where this occurred were: 2.5.2 Multiple Lisps. 3.1.4 Key bindings 3.2 Evaluation commands 3.3 Compilation commands
I don't see these glitches. Maybe the version of the programs you used to make the documentation have glitches. I'm using the latest slime and a fairly up-to-date debian wheezy.
I use texi2html to make the documentation. Maybe I need to do something different.

Thanks for checking this out. I'll see what I can do with the documentation build.
