Hey list...
New to CL (and Allegro) and SLIME -- fair-to-middling with emacs.
Just installed Allegro / SLIME on my OS X box. Using it from OS X Terminal, i.e.:
emacs/M-x slime
Seems to work OK.
One problem: How do I gracefully (and correctly) terminate a LISP hacking session from within SLIME? SO far, I've just been doing a ^X^C to quit emacs, but I now know that that can't be correct because I noticed last night ( after my forehead hit the keyboard) that I had 2 PIDs alive for `alisp'. SO I'm thinking that I'm not doing something correctly - duh! Clue me in, please. TIA..

M-x slime-quit-lisp kills the subprocess. M-x slime-disconnect closes the connection. M-x slime-restart-inferior-lisp kills and restarts the subprocess.
M-x slime-list-connections lists all open connections and you can use C-k in that buffer to kill the corresponding lisp.

Thanks! Exactly what I needed to know.

Another quick way is to use the comma shortcut in the REPL. At the repl,
CL-USER>
just type ,quit (comma then quit).

and slightly quicker is ,q (comma, then `q')
