Update of /project/slime/cvsroot/slime In directory cl-net:/tmp/cvs-serv26315

Modified Files: ChangeLog slime.el Log Message:

• slime.el (slime-with-popup-buffer): Make &optional parameters

&key parameters, add modes parameter. slime-with-popup-buffer sets up some buffer local variables, but enabling major modes kills all buffer locals, so modes should be enabled before setting them. Adopt changes to slime-with-popup-buffer where needed. This fixes several bugs with popup buffers on non-default connections.

What bugs are you talking about? The old version set the variables variables are set before and after executing body.

In `slime-list-threads' the body executes a mode command and `slime-update-threads-buffer', which talks to lisp, but `slime-buffer-connection' is already killed at that point. Calling `slime-thread-control-mode' after `slime-update-threads-buffer' doesn't solve it because the latter now sets header-line-format, which would be killed.
