[slime-devel] rewriting commands

[Tamas K Papp]

I am trying to find out how to do this right.  Suppose I write a
command on the repl and press enter:

CL-USER> (1+ 2)
3

then I go back and edit that line, trying to reuse part of what I
wrote (in this case, I type "(describe " before and ")" after the
previous expression, then press ENTER, ENTER:

CL-USER> (describe (1+ 2))
3
CL-USER> (1+ 2))

and I end up with an incomplete expression (as above) and an error.

How can I reuse edited lines from the REPL?  Copy & paste with C-K C-Y
works, but there must be a better way.
