Hi Mark -

In emacs set slime-enable-evaluate-in-emacs to T, it's a defcustom.

Test that your no able to call back to emacs from your slime session.  For example do (swank:eval-in-emacs '(message "hi")) and "hi" should appear in the emacs minibuffer.

At that point you can write some thing elisp to do the formatting.
