It is almost impossible to google, hence my understanding is limited to contextual clues from reading through the slime source code: perhaps it is part of the object system in common lisp? Something like 'self'? snippet: (cond…

Is there a way to stop a running operation in the SLIME REPL? The Clojure SLIME folks apparently have some way to do this, so how about in ordinary Common Lisp? Thanks /Erik

How do I get a common-lisp GUI in Windows?

I'm using Emacs, with CLISP and Slime, and want to be able to draw pictures on the screen. I'm specifically thinking about drawing graphs, but anything that would let me draw basic shapes and manipulate them would be able to get me started.

What does the 'swank-clojure' do exactly, and do we have 'swank-SOMETHING_ELSE'?

My superficial understanding is that 'swank-clojure' makes 'M-x slime-connect' possible. I mean, it gives a connection to a clojure server something like 'lein swank'. Is my understanding correct? If not, what's the purpose of swank? Then, is there…

What's the closest thing to SLIME for python ? / What's the best way to use python from EMACS?

I'm trying to write some python, and I'm used to the lispy way of doing things, a REPL in EMACS and the ability to send arbitrary code snippets to the REPL. I like this way of developing code, and python's built-in IDLE seems to do it pretty well.…
