I added a "continue" restart so that you could continue after interrupting in openmcl. The thing is that when you do continue you get a "Evaluation aborted" message in the minibuffer, (but evaluation proceeds properly). How do I repair this? -Alan

I can fix this -- I have the fix on my hard disk somewhere, I think I committed it on a dead-end CVS branch a ways back. The solution is to special-case Emacs's invoke-restart command as an asynchronous request that doesn't expect a reply. Then Emacs doesn't push a "waiting evaluation result" onto its state machine -- it will only get aborted (and print this message) when the restart unwinds the stack anyway. Cheers, Luke

Committed the fix. There is a new elisp function: (slime-invoke-oneway EXPRESSION PACKAGE-NAME) This evaluates an expression purely for side-effects. It does not push a state onto the machine in Emacs, and it also inhibits the debugger hook (to avoid potential state conflicts -- these cases bear further considering).
