long function. Can I keep this thread alive *and* disconnect the slime connection?
have a look at screen (f.e. http://www.csci.csusb.edu/turner/archive/notes/screen.html) and start emacs inside a screensession (emacs -nw)
You can deattach your emacs-session, login via ssh reattach your emacs-session, etc. as you like...
hope that gave you an idea,
