[Bese-devel] SLIME/Tramp Development using remote hosts [Used to be: Development/Production Environment]

[Daniel Salama]

Thanks everyone for your support. I finally got it to work!!!

I guess I was getting confused by all the references I found through  
your emails and Google. There were samples using SLIME-FILENAME- 
TRANSLATIONS, SLIME-CREATE-FILENAME-TRANSLATOR, SLIME-TRANSLATE-TO- 
LISP-FILENAME-FUNCTION and SLIME-TRANSLATE-FROM-LISP-FILENAME-FUNCTION.

Anyway, this is ALL I needed in my .emacs:

(setq tramp-default-method "scpx")
(setq password-cache-expiry 7200)

(push (slime-create-filename-translator :machine-instance  
"sun.myhost.net"
                                         :remote-host "10.0.10.2"
                                         :username "dsalama")
       slime-filename-translations)

Also, I had to install No Gnus password.el (http://ftp.gnus.org/cgi- 
bin/cvsweb.cgi/gnus/lisp/password.el?rev=7.12) in order for Tramp's  
password cache to work in my environment (Mac OS X, Emacs from http:// 
www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/carbonemacspackage.html)

Hope this information helps others.

Thanks,
Daniel
