Is it possible to change SLIME-BUSY-P so that SLIME-AUTODOC-MODE and SLIME-SPACE will continue to work while inside the SLIME debugger?
To implement this, the SLIME-BUSY-P needs to know the rex-continuations for the forms that cause the debugger to be entered. The SLIME debugger needs to be able to figure out the rex-continuation of the form that caused the debugger to be entered and add it to the list in the global variable *SLDB-REX-CONTINUATIONS*. When the debugger exits, it needs to remove it from the list.
Hmm.. that sounds complicated. It *could* work, but I don't think the little gain of convenience is worth the complexity.
I changed my mind and implemented your suggestion. slime-space should now also work while debugging.
