In best billc style... ;^)
I
have mentioned some of my Emacs
hacks for editing Common Lisp code
here,
here,
and here (the
latter of which Troels
Henriksen ported
to
Climacs).
So, I finally dusted off some more code-wrangling Emacs macros and
bundled them up in
the Redshank
minor mode. Obligatory screencast:
The provided functionality is quite embryonic still, but I expect it to continue to grow.
For actual code motion and manipulation of Lisp code, I heavily rely on the excellent Paredit mode, with a minimal dependency on SLIME (the dependency might grow in the future, as more sophisticated refactoring likely requires cooperation from a running Lisp.)
For laughs comparison, I'd like to see the same
done for
unparenthesized code...
Okay, enough smugness
for today. Now read the
best Common Lisp
Tutorial, and start hacking away!
First Reactions after Prerelease to the Raving
Masses a Priviledged Audience
antifuchs | michaelw: o_O this is awesome
jmbr | michaelw: I've just downloaded redshank. It's quite cool!
michaelw | pkhuong: eh, okay ECONTEXT :) defclass-skeleton now
inserts parenthesis balanced
pkhuong | michaelw: ah good, good! I might have to try it out then
michaelw | (bonus: customizable accessor style)
pkhuong | so I can have foo-of instead of get-foo too? That
| was my other objection (:
Xach | I am eagerly awaiting the Planet Lisp link!
p.s.: In the right window of the screencast, key strokes were recorded with mwe-log-commands.
p.p.s: The screencasting itself was a major pain. In this case, I am willing to put part of the blame on my inexperience, for the rest I blame the tools I used. A somewhat more detailed account of this may appear under the Rants section.
