[slime-devel] How to 'start again'

After running a program a few times (C-c C-k) the output is not longer showing the program output. Possibly due to errors in the program that I'm developing (compile errors show etc). Is there a way to 'clear' out the buffers and start again? I.e. to clean the lisp environment and restart? TIA -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk

Hi Dave, I don't know you're situation but you should be able to remove a package and then recreate it to get a fresh start (note that this is hearsay on my part; I always restart Lisp but I've heard that the package thing will work). good luck, On Jan 2, 2008, at 4:50 AM, Dave Pawson wrote:

M-text-mode M-slime-mode seems to work.... but equally seems long winded? How do I 'remove' a package then anyone? regards -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk

If the REPL is still intact, use `,restart', otherwise run `M-x slime' and answer the question about creating a new *inferior-lisp* with no. -T.

Neither restart nor (restart) were understood, but CL-USER>slime did the trick. Thanks - Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk

Thanks At the risk of belaboring the point, make sure you remember the ',' before 'restart'. Entering 'restart' does nothing because it's not a lisp symbol. Entering the comma first signifies a slime command, just like ',!p' to change package or ',cd' to change directory. Jonathon McKitrick -- 'Java is a fine language, for low values of fine.'

Not at all. Rather too subtle for me. Now working. Thanks. Is it possible to use the slime command prompt to pass command line parameters to the application? I'm currenty dipping into and out of emacs to do it which is a bit of a drag. regards -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk
