[slime-devel] SLIME supporting Corman Lisp 2.51

[Espen Wiborg]

After much sweat and cursing, I now have SLIME working on Corman Lisp
(only tested on 2.51).  I've attached the necessary swank-corman.lisp
as well as a patch against CVS HEAD.

I actually had this working back in December, but due to a lack of
round tuits I haven't made it official before.

Scissored from swank-corman.lisp:

;;; Notes
;;; =====
;;; You will need CCL 2.51, and you will *definitely* need to patch
;;; CCL with the patches at
;;; http://www.grumblesmurf.org/lisp/corman-patches, otherwise SLIME
;;; will blow up in your face.  You should also follow the
;;; instructions on http://www.grumblesmurf.org/lisp/corman-slime.
;;;
;;; The only communication style currently supported is NIL.
;;;
;;; Starting CCL inside emacs (with M-x slime) seems to work for me
;;; with Corman Lisp 2.51, but I have seen random failures with 2.5
;;; (sometimes it works, other times it hangs on start or hangs when
;;; initializing WinSock) - starting CCL externally and using M-x
;;; slime-connect always works fine.
;;;
;;; Sometimes CCL gets confused and starts giving you random memory
;;; access violation errors on startup; if this happens, try dumping a
;;; new image.
