It was with -Q. | - Delete all compiled Emacs-Lisp files (*.elc) in your SLIME directory | tree. I had deleted "them" (in fact there was only one: slime.elc -- i.e. I deleted that file.) | - Check the *Messages* buffer for any error messages that might | provide some information about why SLIME is not working. Did check that and other buffers -- no messages to talk about. Why your run may be different from mine: 1. I am on FreeBSD. 2. I use Emacs built from the source. Now, with your experience reported, I just tried another Emacs mode, SQL, and found that it also adds empty menus for me now (it was not the case in the past.) Never mind then; I hoped to hear a simple tip on a variable or method in SLIME code that adds menus, from people well familiar with the code, but I will just explore this on my own. Thank you again for your help! -- Alex -- alex-goncharov@comcast.net --
