Works for me. Can you show me how you were enabling slime-tramp?
I'm attaching a copy of my .emacs file renamed to my_dot_emacs. There will be changes to my .emacs as I learn more about what I need.
The second is: Loading /home/pfb/my-slime-sandbox/slime/contrib/slime-cl-indent.el (source)...done slime-enclosing-context-init: This contrib does not work at the moment.
This is a dependency of: slime-mdot-fu
I disabled slime-mdot-fu in my .emacs file.
This contrib appears to have been broken for a very long time. I've created an issue for it: https://github.com/slime/slime/issues/111.

Hi Paul,
I'm annotating your .emacs file, not solving your issue with the broken contribs in particular, but I've spotted some mistakes.

The "```el" is not Elisp. It's a bit of github-specific markdown markup to highlight emacs-lisp code.

You shouldn't need to do this at all, unless you plan to use cl-lib in other projects.

Indeed. Don't do this unless you plan to use quicklisp's version exclusively.

Indeed. The `slime-autodoc' contrib is included in `slime-fancy' contrib. And should set itself up automatically when the contrib is enabled.

Your contrib setup is fine, but if you wish you could add here

Instead of the `slime-setup' call in your eval-after-load block.

Thanks, I removed it.

OK, removed. This was there per one of your emails stating that cl-lib had to be loaded for emacs-23 users. Evidently that's not the case now.

I'm going to continue testing in my download script rather than trying to do it from within emacs. I only need to check new downloads for possible regressions. Once that's done, I usually don't need it when I'm running slime.

I know its old (so am I) but it seemed a good way to set things up so I used it as a skeleton and it's been OK so far.

I don't have this and quicklisp loads fine. I load it from my ~/.sbclrc like so: (load "~/quicklisp/setup.lisp")
My ~/.sbclrc contains: ;;; The following lines added by ql:add-to-init-file: #-quicklisp (let ((quicklisp-init (merge-pathnames "quicklisp/setup.lisp" (user-homedir-pathname)))) (when (probe-file quicklisp-init) (load quicklisp-init))) This is fairly recent because I was fiddling with quicklisp two or three months ago.
Perhaps you could explain why you think utf-8-unix is needed. Maybe it is.
Those three lines have been in place for quite some time. They were necessary when they were put in place, but as you've noticed, I commented one of them out. Maybe the other two can be removed also. I'll try it without and see.

This looks fine, though the default coding-system should work.
I'll leave the coding system as utf-8 for now. Every so often I do copy/paste from some website and I've had to strain the copied code through a binary editor to get rid of characters that looked like ascii but were in fact something else. I haven't had that problem since I set the coding system to utf-8.

I started trying to use log4cl because of some downloaded code I've been trying to upgrade. It seemed like a useful tool to track the progress of the code as I learned from the original author. It beats writing format statements in places I want to monitor.

Yup, I figured that one out all by myself, but I think I'll keep using it because I'm accustomed to it by now.

Thanks for annotating my .emacs file. I did learn from your efforts and I made most of the changes you recommended.

I see. This seems like a reasonable argument to make "utf-8" the default.

Well I always learn from other .emacs.
