jackdaniel: No context that I can see. asarch is using GTK with FFI because, as we were told, "I've trying hard but I still can't figure out how [McCLIM] works".

I think this was an attempt on the part of asarch to see whether McCLIM could be used, and "combo boxes" seem to be missing. Not that I remember by heart what a "combo box" is.

I think the "combo" refers to the fact that the combo-box gadget combines a list-pane and a text-field (in clim terminology). It's different from an option-pane. It allows the user to either type into the text-field or select from the list-pane; in the latter case the selection is displayed in the text-field and is editable

lukego, your clim in emacs things looks very nice, but still rather have an emacs-like editing capability in common lisp. Of course this means things like modes for editing other languages, polymode, etc... to, which would be an awful lot of work.
