8:17:53MichaelRaskinoni-on-ion — I don't think so, in the Nix project we definitely know about Guix and would probably have known about a Nix-similar package manager in Common Lisp
8:20:56MichaelRaskin(And given that I manage my Nix-built system with a Common Lisp daemon and talk about that, I guess someone would have asked me if I want to switch…)
16:54:59makomoSLIME is the Emacs package that implements the client-side of the protocol that's used to communicate with a lisp process
16:55:04cl-n00b777(load "~/quicklisp/clhs-use-local.el" t) returned an undef value when I tried to call from CL-USER repl
16:55:19makomothe server side is called Swank (also comes as a part of the SLIME package), and is loaded into your lisp process when it's started by SLIME
16:55:20cl-n00b777i had to run it in *scratch* buffer
16:57:02makomocl-n00b777: that's because the file is an elisp file, so you most likely can't load it into a Common Lisp implementation (the *scratch* buffer uses elisp by default)
17:03:26cl-n00b777i cant paredit to work...even tho it is loaded
17:04:11cl-n00b777it is supposed to highlight open closing parens,no?
17:05:22oni-on-ioncl-n00b777, i think that is electric parens. i use rainbow-delimiters-mode as well because i like my operator symbols to be colored
17:06:04oni-on-ionsee "animated paredit" web page. with s-exp generally we like to work a bit higher than the character level of arrow keys and backspace and typing
