Hi all, In buffer *Slime Connections* the marked entry is the 'default' REPL. What's the significance of 'default' status? Is it that in the case of multiple REPLS on a single lisp instance, it determines which REPL receives the lisp output? And if the above thinking is correct, does it have any significance at all when each REPL is on a separate lisp instance?

Scratch all that, I've found the answer. Sorry for the noise. (info "(slime) Multiple connections") I was searching for 'REPL' and not 'connections'. Seb -- Emacs' AlsaPlayer - Music Without Jolts Lightweight, full-featured and mindful of your idyllic happiness. http://home.gna.org/eap

I don't understand what's happening with multiple REPLs. I open a fresh emacs and slime; then M-x slime-open-listener and I get a second REPL in a buffer named "*slime-listener*". Now, the original REPL works as usual. But the new one hangs as soon as I enter anything (e.g.: type a number, enter). Nothing appears anywhere, except that I've noticed that if I go in the *slime threads* buffer and I attach the one named repl-thread, I find this: error opening #P"/tmp/slime.25386": File exists [Condition of type SB-INT:SIMPLE-FILE-ERROR] I have the current snapshot of SLIME, and SBCL 1.0.32 on Debian AMD64 with threading enabled. Thanks, Giovanni Gigante

I don't think there has been any work on slime-mrepl contrib done recently. If I wanted several repls to one lisp instance I'd just create two swank servers and connect to them. -- With best regards, Stas.
