[slime-devel] why does swank:*globally-redirect-io* defalut to NIL?
i'd imagine that, for most development setup and for newbies, getting output setup to *inferior-lisp* or the remote slime's terminal is not what you want. any problems if i change this to t? -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring.

p.s. - i'm assuming that it works correctly on all the various lisp systems, correct me if i'm wrong. -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. -Leonard Cohen

I agree that T would be the more preferable default. Unfortunately this stopped working for me, I would guess something like a month ago. I just checked, and this feature of the current cvs slime does not work on: - OS X on an Intel MacBook - very recent cvs Gnu Emacs - SBCL 0.9.16 If memory serves, it also stopped working on one of my Linux boxes (Gentoo, older SBCL) at the same time it broke on the laptop, but I haven't checked that recently. I can do if it's of any help. Cheers, Bill. -- William Bland: http://www.abstractnonsense.org/ Lisp documentation: http://www.lispdoc.com/

I'm fine with that too.

The time when this happened was probably a while back (late spring or early summer unless memory fails), when SBCL changed the way special variables work with threads: threads used to inherit the bindings from their parents, which i no longer the case -- all threads use the global bindings unless the variable has been bound in the thread. And before you ask, no *default-special-bindings* and equivalents don't exist yet, but will "soon". Cheers, -- Nikodemus Schemer: "Buddha is small, clean, and serious."

That was in SBCL 0.9.6 (October 2005). -- Juho Snellman
