  1. evil

    The extensible vi layer for Emacs.

    I could never get a good Lisp set-up going on vim (though I don't think I tried vlime,) but I've found evil mode a nice way to bring vi-style editing to emacs.

  3. neoterm

    Wrapper of some vim/neovim's :terminal functions.

    I use Vim with neoterm, highly recommend. - guaranteed support on everything with a repl - never creates unexpected windows - every interaction is explicit

  4. mondo

    Simple Common Lisp REPL

    You can connect to things running swank (like, your stumpwm config) using mondo. It starts a regular old repl connected to the swank port.

  5. slimv

    Official mirror of Slimv versions released on vim.org

    I use Vim with slimv, and have for years.

  6. vlime

    A Common Lisp dev environment for Vim (and Neovim)

    https://github.com/vlime/vlime works for me fine

  7. nvlime

    A Common Lisp development environment for Neovim

    Sadly Vlime is the best I have experience with. It is very clunky, but it does work. There is nvlime which aims to improve the experience for Neovim, but I have not tried it yet because it requires the current master builds.

  8. nvim-dap

    Debug Adapter Protocol client implementation for Neovim

    You can open an input buffer (si), write an expression and press to send it to the REPL. Personally though I prefer just writing my code straight into the current Lisp buffer and sending the top-level form to the REPL, then deleting the form. Neovim has prompt-buffers (:h prompt-buffer) which could be used to give us a proper interactive REPL buffer. It is the same thing used by nvim-dap for the debugger REPL.
