  • I programmed a SLY completion backend, it works, but I could use some help fine tuning it.

    please someone create a pull request (or issue) on SLY github, to make it available to other SLY users. (I do not wish to have a github account and don't care about the copyright)
  • Font Identification Request
    1 project | /r/emacs | 17 Jul 2023
    Probably a silly question. I saw some Emacs gifs in sly’s README and found the font simple but comfortable. Would anyone using the same font mind sharing his/her setup?
  • Lisp and cybersecurity !

    I think lisp languages have a culture of not caring about security, (total speculation here) with roots going back to stallman decrypting the passwords and restoring anonymous access in the MIT lab. For example, quicklisp the main package manager people are using with common lisp is pulling packages over http. Normal lisp development spawns a tcp socket that accepts arbitrary code to execute. Emacs recently pushed a release fixing a vuln not because they thought it was important, but because their users cared and they realize it's a bad look to not push timely fixes to known vulns. All those I can't really fault cause they're just people in their free time, but clojure has major industry use and the default html templater (hiccup) doesn't escape html by default (well it does in version 2 but that's still alpha so most are on version 1), leading to most web backends written in clojure having cross-site scripting (XSS) vulns.
  • So i wanna learn Common Lisp

    With emacs your two choices are either SLIME or SLY. Slime is a good place to start - it's rock solid. Once you get moving you can make a judgement call on whether or not SLY has features you'd like over what SLIME has available.
  • Are there plugins for Neovim that don't exist, that should exist, in your opinion?

    A proper Neovim client for Slime or Sly. The closest is Vlime, but its UI is really janky.

    This may sound very threatening, but Emacs is the champion for lisp/scheme support out of the box in my opinion. If you are trying Common Lisp, check sly: https://github.com/joaotavora/sly It’s installable via melpa: https://melpa.org/#/getting-started

    I tried to quickload c-mera into sbcl (using Emacs and SLY on Linux (SLIME should work, too)) and succeeded. here is what I did: 1) git clone https://github.com/kiselgra/c-mera 2) git clone https://github.com/didierverna/clon 3. open a SLY-REPL and (ql:quickload "net.didierverna.clon"), be sure it succeeds, if not check asdf paths 4. change to c-mera directory and do a dos2unix file on all files in all (sub)directories. 5. run autoreconf -if 6. run ./configure --with-sbcl 7. run make this failed on my system, I didn't try to solve that 8. open the SLY-REPL and enter (ql:quickload "c-mera") 9. in SLY-REPL enter (ql:quickload "cmu-c") 10. in SLY-REPL enter (in-package :cmu-c) 11. in SLY-REPL enter (cm-reader) 12. in SLY-REPL run first example code from readme

    For vim users, check out vim-slime[1]. It's really changed my workflow! It can work for any language that uses a REPL, including bash/shell. Combined with tmux, it is an amazing and (in hindsight) obvious tool. I honestly can't imagine myself going back to not having it now.

    For splitting the terminal you could try either toggleterm or tmux. If you want to send things from one tmux pane to another, then you can use slime. For a toggle-able filetree, you can use nvim tree.

    I use vim-slime. It works really well in tmux. https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime. Just blocks of code as cells
  • slimux.nvim - Simple plugin to send text to tmux panes
    4 projects | /r/neovim | 24 May 2023
    This is yet another plugin to capture text from the current buffer and send it to a tmux pane. I was using https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime previously, and wished I could just set sensible defaults for where to send text. Also, I wanted to create my first Neovim plugin! I have to say, after writing a bit of Vimscript in the past, the Neovim Lua API makes me a much happier camper.

    I use slime (which sends code to tmux panes), tmux (of course) and ipython for this. For example, the code I sent to ipython was with a simple keybinding ...

    REPL??? Do you have a very-easy-to-use way of running and testing your code? From vim-slime to nvim sniprun to autocommands with the built in terminal, to an external repl like ptpython (for python obviously). iron.nvim and conjure are two other neovim repl plugins. There are many ways of running the code that you're working on, and having something that makes this really easy for you is pretty essential. (sometimes I use inotifytools on linux to literally just run the script every time I save it.)

    However, if you're coding in an interpreted language like python, R, bash, etc., then there is one plugin which you are likely to find helpful. That's vim-slime.
