CLISP, EMACS & SLIME and the '(slime-repl)
by badbetty from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4RE53)
Hello folks - good day
Try as I might, on Slackware 14.2 (32 or 64), I cannot get a working CLISP/EMACS/SLIME setup with the latest versions - well more specifically, it is when trying to use the contrib '(SLIME-REPL) ... which is the whole point of using EMACS/SLIME.
I am always getting 'unexpected disconnections' when an error is encountered in a lisp form. I have raised this on the CLISP mailing list and some responses were given, though not to resolution. Indeed, one suggested that on their *Debian* setup of CLISP/EMACS/SLIME using the SLIME-REPL was fine and I am not sure what that suggests. It used to work I feel on earlier co-operating versions, but I am not any where near competent in lisp, clisp, emacs etc to debug it etc.
*****
Any way all that said, what my enquiry here is about: if anyone is using CLISP, EMACS, SLIME with the SLIME-REPL on Slackware specifically, please can you post the .clisprc.lisp, the .emacs config files... please ?
I can start from there and that seems better than any thing else at this stage.
*****
I have tried all sorts of settings from simple to complex and nothing seems to stop the 'unexpected disconnection' when using the 'slime-repl'.
Thank you if by [perhaps] rare chance, anyone out there is using without any errors and can post the configs.
