The benefit of Sly is builtin mrepl, stickers, everything being a button to inspect, amoung many improvements and bug fixes.

as of a few days ago, even builtin company completion with zero configuration that is much snappier than the old sly-company, or slime-company

I switched from SLIME to Sly about 3 years ago and I'm still happy with that choice whenever I am reminded by using SLIME

I did: (ql:quickload "clim-examples") in "This is SBCL 1.3.14.debian, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp." and everything is fine, however when I do: (clim-demo:demodemo) I get: https://pastebin.com/0adz1s7D

since quicklisp distribution seems to be the same, you probably have another mcclim copy somewhere in local-projects or common-lisp directory

notice difference in instructions: ";; try (CLIM-DEMO:DEMODEMO)" vs ";; try (CLIM-DEMO::DEMODEMO)"

I didn't see this: ./.cache/common-lisp/sbcl-1.3.14.debian-linux-x64/usr/share/common-lisp/source/mcclim

does cl-who only recognize the "htm", "str", etc. symbols if they're interned in its own package?

hmm i guess that makes sense, since how would you otherwise call your own functions with those names

I've ran into a problem. I decided to spend 1-2 year on Lisp and do my stuff in this language. but now I see I may not have my projects done in Lisp because I'll program them in my previous language's way. on the other hand I can't wait 1-2 year or even months to have enough experience.

the thing I've employed is write snippets or pages of code and then post it here and on #clnoobs to get reviews

that way I got a lot of information about how to write the same thing in more idiomatic Lisp.

there's a lot of lispers around here who are willing to freely share that information and do small reviews. you can leverage that fact.
