[slime-devel] Behaviour of slime-inspect in slime-cvs

Hello, I have been using slime-2.0 all this while and I tried out slime-cvs recently. I discovered that C-c I (slime-inspect) doesn't inspect the object under the point any more as it used to do up to slime-2.0 I found the feature to be extremely useful as I could move up and down anywhere in the REPL buffer and inspect any object. Now I am limited to inspecting only * though **** and variables. In my humble opinion the old behaviour of slime-inspect should be in slime-cvs too; or there should at least be _some_ way to trivially enable the old behaviour. Regards, BG -- Baishampayan Ghose (concatenate 'string (mapcar #'code-char (reverse '(109 111 99 46 108 105 97 109 103 64 101 115 111 104 103 46 98))))

With Matthias Koeppe's very recent presentations work, you'll be able to use `C-c C-v TAB' to inspect the object behind a presentation. All REPL results will become presentations if you use the `slime-presentations' contrib (which is automatically loaded if you use the `slime-fancy' meta-contrib.) It may be reasonable to ask if `C-c I' should be modified by `slime-presentations' to also work on presentations under point. -T.
