Hi, The slime documentation says that key bindings with 3 continuous C-'s also work as key bindings with two continuous C-'s. For example C-c C-d C-h should work the same as C-c C-d h, but this doesn't works in slime 1-0. Does this bug still exists, or is it fixed?

Unfortunatly it's an emacs standard that any prefix ending in C-h will display all the bindings on that prefix. Lots of people have their fingers hard-wired in this manner, so Slime doesn't bind anything ending with C-h anymore.
(I say unfortunatly because I really liked the old Hyperspec binding - C-c C-h - but there were a lot of (understandable) complaints about it.)
