[slime-devel] SLIME showing value of symbol in mini-buffer
Hi, I'm not sure what I did to turn on this feature or how to turn it off. When the point is over a symbol in the Lisp buffer, its value is displayed in the mini-buffer. This would normally be fine, but it is a bit of an issue when the symbol is an array with 100,000 elements in it. My machine hates that. I looked in the docs, but I couldn't find what it might be. I do hope this is not part of autodoc mode which I have turned on in my .emacs. Anyway, how do I turn this useful but potentially dangerous feature off? Thanks.

Look for the string "autodoc" in your ~/.emacs to see where it's been enabled. But Helmut has checked in a fix to avoid overlong messages.

Speaking of overlong messages: I think that arglist info shouldn't be truncated, as it's probably never longer than a few lines, and all of it is needed. I suggest using message instead of slime-background-message at least in slime-space. Andras

Yes, done.
