[slime-devel] [PATCH] Making Fuzzy Completion semantically complete.

[Tobias C. Rittweiler]

The attached patch makes Slime's fuzzy completion semantically 
complete. For example on SBCL, "sb:with C-c M-i" will now display
all with-style macros of all sb-* packages!

Here is an extract of the resulting *Fuzzy Completions* buffer (the
output in the real buffer is even cooler, as the relevant matchings
of substrings of "sb:with" are highlighted):

The patch depends on my two previous patches. Appliable via -p0.
Tested on SBCL and CLISP.
