[slime-devel] Connecting to running image versus starting from emacs

Hi all, I have a question about running a Lisp app. Right now, I'm starting a repl, loading an asdf-system, and starting a swank server. Then I connect from emacs/slime. Is there a way to start emacs and load/run the app from there? -Jonathon -- "I am sure that Jesus would use a command prompt. Hello? Ten Commandments??"

M-x slime this should give you a normal lisp repl you can load asdf systems form and do whatever you want. no? -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget the perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. -Leonard Cohen

Okay, I watched your movie again and figured it out. :-) Although, when I tried loading my project, which uses Araneida, my browser couldn't access the page. I had to start the project in another window and repl, and start swank server there. Then it worked when I connected. Question: when does the inspector work? I know slime doesn't have a stepping debugger, correct? So do you have to be in the debugger for the inspector to work? Or can I inspect anything at any time? -Jonathon -- "I am sure that Jesus would use a command prompt. Hello? Ten Commandments??"

You can use the inspector at any time with M-x slime-inspect or C-x I. Zach
