<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><DIV>Hello,</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I am new to ECL and this mailing list, and the mailing list archive link is currently broken, so apologies if this question has already been addressed previously. I am interested in the status of slime integration with ECL. I was recently pointed to a small thread (from August 2005) on the slime-devel list that noted an initial port of slime to ECL:</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><SPAN class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </SPAN><A href="http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/slime-devel/2005-August/003811.html">http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/slime-devel/2005-August/003811.html</A></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>A reply in the thread notes that there was some work still needed to make the port robust. Also, I have installed ECL v0.9i and tried it with slime, but find that the slime debugging facilities don't appear to be fully functional. For example, the backtrace is not accessible (leading to further errors with the SWANK-BACKEND:FRAME-LOCALS). My questions are:</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>(1) Is anyone on this list actively developing in ECL using slime?</DIV><DIV>(2) Has there been or is there planned further work on the slime interface to ECL, specifically to address the slime debugging and backtrace issues? (If planned, is there an estimate on progress or when an update will be made?)</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Thanks!</DIV><BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV>Clayton T.
