Hello,
I have what seems like a simple question that neither the docs nor the web have answered: my mode line seems to have some sort of error reporting feature, where the mode indicator reads Slime[package, ccl{1}], with this number in curly braces representing how many errors of some sort I've racked up.
I can't for the life of me figure out what these errors are, where I can see further details, and how I can get that number to go away. More irritatingly, when I'm editing Lisp source, Slime has taken to flashing the {1} for an instant every time I type characters into the buffer. It appears for an instant, then disappears immediately. Presumably I've got a non-fatal misconfiguration somewhere that I don't know about, but this is very distracting. Can someone point out what's going on here? I'm using emacs CVS on Mac OS X (PPC), ccl version 1.4-dev-r12553-trunk and the last change in my slime CVS changelog is from 2009-08-04.
Thanks! Eric

It doesn't represent the number of errors. It does show number of uncompleted asynchronous requests.

Every time you type a character, slime communicates with lisp to request some information, for example, arglists.

Aha, I was confused, thanks for this.

Is there a way to shut it off? I don't really need this information and half of my mode line leaping left and right as I type is very distracting...
Thanks! Eric
