Mikel,
That fixed it. Thanks. Thank you Lars, also.
I have no idea why this edit to swank-cmucl.lisp works, but I'd like to suggest that some mention of it appear in the documentation/FAQ so that other mac users can get in on the fun.
Thanks again.
- Matt

Hi all,
I'm just getting started with SLIME and CMUCL, so any help would be really appreciated.
I set up SLIME 1.0 on a linux machine according to the manual's instructions, and M-x slime worked out-of-the-box quite nicely. The analogous setup on OS X, however, gives me the following error. After this point, the inferior lisp mode works fine, but slime mode does not. A problem with the socket communication perhaps?
Could someone please help me debug this? I think that my network interface is properly configured, but since it's my day 1 with SLIME, it's hard for me to know how to analyze this error.
In recent combinations of SLIME and CMUCL I've found it necessary to comment out a bit of swank-cmucl.lisp. The bit in question is at line 77 of version 1.114 (the cvs version I have at the moment), and looks like this:
(defimplementation create-socket (host port) (ext:create-inet-listener port :stream :reuse-address t :host (resolve-hostname host)))
The bit you want to comment out is:
:host (resolve-hostname host)After I do that, SLIME and CMUCL cohabit nicely in recent builds of Carbon Gnu Emacs.
