7 SLIME: The Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs. SLIME is a
8 fresh, new Emacs mode for Common Lisp development inspired by existing
9 systems such Emacs Lisp and ILISP. Feature highlights include:
11 * slime-mode: An Emacs minor-mode to enhance lisp-mode with:
12 o Code evaluation, compilation, and macroexpansion.
13 o Online documentation (describe, apropos, hyperspec).
14 o Definition finding (aka Meta-Point aka M-.).
15 o Symbol and package name completion.
16 o Automatic macro indentation based on &body.
17 o Cross-reference interface (WHO-CALLS, etc).
20 * SLDB: Common Lisp debugger with an Emacs-based user interface.
22 * REPL: The Read-Eval-Print Loop ("top-level") is written in Emacs
23 Lisp for tighter integration with Emacs. The REPL also has builtin
24 "shortcut" commands similar those of the McCLIM Listener.
26 * Compilation notes: SLIME is able to take compiler messages and
27 annotate them directly into source buffers.
29 * Inspector: Interactive object-inspector in an Emacs buffer.
