* slime.el (slime-complete-form): Emacs 20 compatibility fix.(slime-repl-update-banner): Remove animation stuff.(slime-startup-animation): Deleted.Why oh why was this deleted? This feature gave me warm and fuzzy feelings at the start of every lisp hacking session! Can it at least be optionally enabled?
Oh my god, they killed the animation :-O
Because it takes ages (~2 sec) to display and needlessly complicates the code. SLIME's startup sequence is already long and hairy enough.
Hmm, how often do you startup a slime session? I just finished installing a new box and as a the final task i compiled CVS emacs and slime -- seeing that animation come up and being greeted by slime made me feel: "now the thing is ready for work".
Pleeeease, give us back our animation :-)
