Helm-SLY

Helm for SLY, a Common Lisp interaction mode for Emacs.

Installation

Add helm-sly.el to your load-path. Set up SLY properly.

To use Helm instead of the Xref buffer, enable global-helm-sly-mode.

To enable Helm for completion, two options:

• Without company:

  (add-hook 'sly-mrepl-hook #'helm-sly-disable-internal-completion)
  ;; If you want fuzzy-matching:
  (setq helm-completion-in-region-fuzzy-match t)
      

• With company, install helm-company, then:

  (add-hook 'sly-mrepl-hook #'company-mode)
  (require 'helm-company)
  (define-key sly-mrepl-mode-map (kbd "<tab>") 'helm-company)
      

Usage

Helm-SLY defines a few new commands:

helm-sly-list-connections

Yet another Lisp connection list with `helm’.

helm-sly-apropos

Yet another apropos with Helm.

helm-sly-mini

Like helm-sly-list-connections, but include an extra source of Lisp-related buffers, like the events buffer or the scratch buffer.

Change Log

0.7.2

• Add “recompile” actions to Xref source.

0.7.1

• Fix predicate argument in helm-sly-lisp-buffer-source.
• Fix buffer-less connection switching.
• Rename helm-sly-build-buffers-source source name to “Build buffers”, to avoid conflict with Lisp buffers. This fixes completion against buffers.

0.7

• Add source listing all Lisp buffers.
• Make helm-sly–c-source-connection more customizable.
• Include inferior Lisp buffer to the “Lisp buffers” source. It was already accessible via the action menu.
• Dynamically list the debug buffer in the “Lisp buffers” source, when present. It was already accessible via the action menu.
• Dynamically list sly-description and sly-compilation when present.
• Fix sly-scratch and sly-db buffer switching.

0.6

• New action to go to REPL in other window.
• List current connection buffer candidate last.
• Make connection candidates customizable. See helm-sly--c-source-connection.
• Make connection candidate display customizable. See helm-sly-connection-formatter.
