How does it work? I have tried invoking it in a CMUCL SLIME session with McCLIM loaded, passing clim-clx::clx-medium as an argument. I get a buffer containing:
Class Browser
[+] clim-clx::clx-medium
If I hit ENTER on "+", it turns into "X" and nothing else happens. Apparently, any other keystroke displays this error in the echo area:
Text is read only: "Attempt to change text outside editable field"
I use the latest SLIME and McCLIM CVS sources, CMUCL Snapshot 2005-03 and GNU Emacs 21.3.2 under Slackware Linux 10.0.

You're lucky. I get the "Text is read only" message. But the X probably means that clim-clx::clx-medium has no subclasses. How about STANDARD-OBJECT or some such?

Try Mouse-1.

Doh. I tried with a class that does have subclasses, and it works fine.

This works, I can expand the subclasses.
How do I quit the class browser? "q" doesn't work.
