Hello,
This new feature is really nice, but wouldn't it be ever better if the *Completions* buffer was closed when the completion is finally done ? I think it is more functional, the problem is that I am not good enough at Emacs programming to do it myself. I'll give a try though ...
Best regards, Camille

I suppose it makes sense... The attached patch should take care of that in a pretty straight forward (read hackish) manner. Seems to be working though. It keeps the previous space related behaviour and adds the slime-close-buffer to the sole completion cases (that's what you were referring to, right?).
I also removed a redundant test in the slime-close-buffer function...
Again, hope this can be useful in some way :).

Hi again,
Apparently the problem with the current version of slime-complete-restore-window-configuration is somehow related to the use of bury-buffer. Instead of the hackish patch I sent earlier this version makes use of the present structure but calls the slime-close-buffer function instead, which basically does the same as the previous code but makes use of kill-buffer.
Another important issue is the use of the slime-completions-buffer-name variable instead of the hard coded "*Completions*".
Sorry for not paying closer attention to the code before sending the suggested patches to the list.
Tiago.
Hi Slimy People,
Could you please consider merging this patch?
Thank you! Camille

There is code to do this (was already there before this patch). Unfortunately it is not so easy to detect when a "completion is finally done".
Currently the buffer is closed after a completion, when the user types one of the chars "()"'`,# \r\n:" after. We also wait for the next possibility when the user inserts a self-inserting char, completes again or a hits backspace. We give up if the user does something else, like switching to another buffer.
If you have a better or simpler idea, please speak up :)

The patch Tiago sent just adds the little tweak I was suggesting. Thanks !

This doesn't seem to work quite right for me. Here's how.
1. Start emacs. I have one frame with one window that's *scratch*. 2. M-x slime. (Mine happens to be OpenMCL.) 3. Slime loads. Now I have two windows, *scratch* on top, and *slime-repl[1]* on bottom, selected. 4. I only want the REPL, so I C-x 1, making slime-repl take the whole screen. 5. I type "(symb<TAB>". It completes to "(symbol", and the completions pop up in a window at the bottom of the screen. 6. I want symbol-macrolet, so I type "-m<TAB>". It completes symbol-macrolet. But my window is still split; *scratch* has taken the place of *Completions*. I banished *scratch* above, I don't want to see it again.
I find this more annoying than just having the completions stay up, since at least they have some bearing on my Lisp work.
I think it should restore the window configuration that was there before the completions popped up, unless windows manipulation commands were run in the interim, in which cast the user would be annoyed when whatever he did disappeared.
Unfortunately I have no clue how to do this. :) Maybe tieing in to winner-mode (which I have up anyway...)

For me this fixes it.

Should be fixed in CVS.

I agree. It's better to keep the windows alone if we cannot restore the window configuration.
