[slime-devel] command completion not working

[Gary King]

Hi David,

I'm the third to last person to understand this stuff, but what is/are  
the modes of the buffer in question. Slime is only active in Lisp  
buffers. You may want to add something like this...

(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.cl$" . slime-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.asd$" . slime-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.asdf$" . slime-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.cl$" . lisp-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.asd$" . lisp-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.asdf$" . lisp-mode) auto-mode-alist))

HTH,
