I posted this information to the Aquamacs-devel list and was asked to post it here.
I was looking at the bug in the inspector in slime-fancy when used with clos objects in LispWorks. The bug was reported here quite a while ago and the latest patch for it was posted in
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.slime.devel/7415
I won't repost the patch as the one there applies cleanly to current CVS. All it does is define three one line wrapper functions that are available in other lisps or their swank backends but not LispWorks and are used by the fancy inspector for slot write access.
Thanks, I've merged this into CVS with minor changes.
I did confirm that the bug occurs with the current version 5.1 of LispWorks Personal Edition, using SLIME from CVS. While reproducing it I found that the existing documentation for SLIME and LispWorks Personal Edition is no longer accurate, so I am noting what I found here, along with the steps to reproduce the bug.
Where is the this documentation kept? I couldn't find anything about LispWorks Personal Edition in the SLIME CVS.
