[slime-devel] How to get the REPL window to automatically popup on output
Hello there, How can I get the REPL window to popup automatically on output? I found the variable slime-repl-popup-on-output, which seems to do that, but it gets reset back to nil. Thanks, Frank

I think there is no direct way to do that.

You could probably set/reset that in 'slime-transcript-start-hook and 'slime-transcript-stop-hook. Helmut
I had a quick look at the slime-repl.el and I'm wondering what the purpose is of setting slime-repl-popup-on-output back to nil. Wouldn't it be better to leave it as it is? It only seems to be used in slime-repl-emit after all. Frank

If a long running computation continually prints something then it would be hard to hide the buffer manually.
It only seems to be used in slime-repl-emit after all.
The intended use was something like "show the buffer but only the next time when output comes along". A timer could be used to turn it back on. Helmut
