Hi lispers,

What's the correct way to bind keys in *slime-description* buffers only?

Those buffers are just in fundamental-mode so there is no easy way to do that.

IMO its made more difficult than necessary b/c of slime-eval-describe...

Here is one possibility for achieving the functionality OP requested:

(defun slime-description-view-source-file () (interactive) ;; bail if we're not in "*slime description*" buffer (when (string-equal (buffer-name (current-buffer)) (slime-buffer-name :description)) (let (if-matched) (save-excursion (goto-char (point-min)) (and (search-forward-regexp "^[[:blank:]]*?Source file: \(/.*\)$" nil t) (setq if-matched (match-string 1)))) (and if-matched (not (or ;; e.g. SBCL's /tmp/file3HfzPd (null (file-name-extension if-matched)) ;; Don't try to look at compiled files ;; Are there other extensions? (member (file-name-extension if-matched) '("fasl" "fsl")) ;; Paranoia for e.g. /tmp/file3HfzPd (string-match-p "^/t.?mp" if-matched))) ;; Make sure there is actually a file with that name. (file-exists-p if-matched) ;; Visiting it in `view-mode' prevents inadverdent edits (view-file-other-window if-matched)))))

;;; ============================== ;; ;; Following call `slime-eval-describe' when generating/entering the ;; "*slime description*" buffer: ;; `slime-describe-function' `slime-describe-symbol' ;; `slime-documentation' `slime-disassemble-symbol' ;; ;; The call chain has this general form: ;; ;; `slime-eval-describe' ;; `-> `slime-show-description' ;; `-> `slime-with-popup-buffer' ;; `-> `slime-make-popup-buffer' ;; ;; :NOTE `slime-make-popup-buffer' has a `kill-all-local-variables' ;; ;;; ==============================

;;; ============================== ;; We add a new hook variable `*slime-show-description-hook*' ;; Functions added to this hook will automatically be made ;; buffer-local on entry to *slime description*, IOW there is likely ;; little efficacy in doing passing a non-nil value for `add-hook's ;; LOCAL arg e.g.: ;; (add-hook '*slime-show-description-hook* '<MY-FOO> t t) ;; (defvar *slime-show-description-hook* nil) ;; ;; We add a new function which sets some buffer local variables on ;; entry to the *slime description* buffer (defun slime-setup-show-description-buffer-locals () (when (get-buffer (slime-buffer-name :description)) (with-current-buffer (get-buffer (slime-buffer-name :description)) (set (make-local-variable '*slime-local-show-description-hook*) '*slime-show-description-hook*) (run-hooks (buffer-local-value '*slime-local-show-description-hook* (current-buffer)))))) ;; ;; We redefine `slime-show-description' by adding a call to ;; `slime-setup-show-description-buffer-locals'. Note, the added call ;; must happen _after_ `slime-with-popup-buffer'. ;; ;; We local bind the `slime-description-view-source-file' command ;; - I prefer C-c C-f for its mnemomoic congruence with C-x C-f ;; - Uncomment the local-set-key on "\t" if that is what is wanted. (defun slime-show-description (string package) (let ((bufname (slime-buffer-name :description))) (slime-with-popup-buffer (bufname :package package :connection t :select slime-description-autofocus) (princ string) (goto-char (point-min))) ;; Additions begin here. Note, functions run on the hook will ;; need to recognize `buffer-read-only' if they intend modfifying ;; the *slime description* buffer contents... (with-current-buffer (get-buffer bufname) (slime-setup-show-description-buffer-locals) ;; (local-set-key "\t" 'slime-description-view-source-file) ))) (local-set-key "\C-c\C-f" 'slime-description-view-source-file))))
