Full description
SLIME is the ``Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs.'' SLIME extends Emacs with support for interactive programming in Common Lisp. The features are centered around slime-mode, an Emacs minor-mode that complements the standard lisp-mode. While lisp-mode supports editing Lisp source files, slime-mode adds support for interacting with a running Common Lisp process for compilation, debugging, documentation lookup, and so on. The slime-mode programming environment follows the example of Emacs's native Emacs Lisp environment. We have also included good ideas from similar systems (such as ILISP) and some new ideas of our own. SLIME is constructed from two parts: a user-interface written in Emacs Lisp, and a supporting server program written in Common Lisp. The two sides are connected together with a socket and communicate using an RPC-like protocol. The Lisp server is primarily written in portable Common Lisp. The required implementation-specific functionality is specified by a well-defined interface and implemented separately for each Lisp implementation. This makes SLIME readily portable.

Swank will bind the PORT on this interface. By default, interface is 127.0.0.1. This argument can be used, for example, to bind swank on IPv6 interface "::1". ** SBCL backend *** Now swank can be bound to IPv6 interface and can work on IPv6-only machines. *** Compatiblity with the latest SBCL * 2.18 (May 2016) *** Mostly bug fixes and compatibility with newer implementations * 2.17 (February 2016) ** Contribs *** New contrib, slime-macrostep, for more advanced in-place macroexpansion. *** New contrib, slime-quicklisp. * 2.16 (January 2016) *** Auto-completion now supports package-local nicknames on SBCL and ABCL. *** Bug fixes and updates for newer implementations. * 2.15 (August 2015) ** Core *** Completions are now displayed with `completion-at-point'. The new variable `slime-completion-at-point-functions' should now be used to customize completion. The old variable `slime-complete-symbol-function' still works, but it is considered obsolete and will be removed eventually. ** SBCL backend *** M-. can locate forms within PROGN/MACROLET/etc. Needs SBCL 1.2.15 * 2.14 (June 2015) ** Core *** Rationals are displayed in the echo area as floats too *** Some of SLDB's faces now have MORE COLOR *** Clicking with mouse-1 within inspector does things As do mouse-6 and mouse-7. (Thanks to Attila Lendvai.) ** slime-c-p-c (Compound Prefix Completion) *** Now takes a better guess at symbol case (issue #233) ** slime-fancy *** slime-mdot-fu is now enabled by default ... ...
