  • Emacs 28 can not run Slime

  • 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.
  • Common Lisp vs Racket

    To provide a bit more context, most of SLIME is just Common Lisp code (https://github.com/slime/slime), with a bunch of Emacs Lisp code alongside to support interfacing with Emacs. But you don't need that Emacs Lisp code to take advantage of almost all of the functionality SLIME provides. For instance, if you want to know who-calls a function, there's some command in emacs to do it, but all that command is doing is just a bit of elisp code which sends a message to Swank (a server running inside Common Lisp) and Swank invokes some native CL code to figure that out and return the results, then finally a bit of elisp code presents the results in some way. Vim can do the same thing just fine with vimscript/python (what the Slimv plugin uses) or otherwise, the bulk of the work in figuring out the list of callers of some function is done by the CL code (and CL implementation itself).

    For example, some people that are Common Lisp programmers, but don't use GNU Emacs, may decide to use GNU Emacs because of the slime-mode workflow.
  • How can I start learning Lisp and which dialect/compiler should I use?
    4 projects | /r/lisp | 31 Aug 2021
    Emacs is the pretty much the defunct editor, and Portacle, as mentioned by others, is actually an Emacs configuration using SLIME. There's also SLY, which is a fork of SLIME, that I don't see mentioned much here. There's a Racket mode for Emacs as well, if you don't want to use DrRacket.

    SLIME is a Emacs mode for Common Lisp development. It is an environment for hacking Common Lisp. It has got a Common Lisp debugger, REPL (Read-Eval-Print-Loop) which is written in Emacs Lisp for tighter integration with Emacs and an interactive object-inspector. So this is a must have addon for Emacs if you are interested in doing serious Lisp. Once you installed Emacs, you can install slime with M-x package-install\ and then type slime\ and press Enter. You can also refer to the Quick setup instructions on their github README to quickly configure SLIME.
