I did C-x 2 to get two buffers and then in the lower buffer I did C-x 
C-left-arrow to change it to *inferior lisp*.
Then I entered (sb-ext:describe-compiler-policy) and all of the output 
from that command went to the upper
buffer *slime-repl sbcl*.
This is with the .emacs you sent.

More on this: If I select everything in the *inferior lisp* buffer and 
use the edit>cut menu selection,
then it deletes everything in the *inferior lisp* buffer, but I cannot 
do it with the delete key.
This is with the .emacs you sent.

When I do emacs -Q from a command prompt, Emacs opens with only 2 
buffers, *scratch* and *Messages*. I cannot do M-x slime because it 
comes back with [no match].
This is with the .emacs you sent.

Can't use emacs -Q to test anything with slime...

I'll upgrade my slime to see how it acts...

I'm attaching a copy of my original .emacs file (emacs.save)

By the way, yesterday I upgraded my sbcl to sbcl-1.1.14 which shouldn't 
matter to slime, but I'm just letting you know.

Thanks,
