CommonLisp development with Emacs

CommonLisp development with Emacs

[Anton V. Belyaev]

Hi!

There is no support for CommonLisp (CLISP, EcoLisp...) out of the box.
I've found ILisp package for Emacs which provides support for
many CommonLisp implementations from Emacs.
But ILisp seems to be abandoned: its change is dated 2003 and I got
some compatibility
problems with my current Emacs version (22).

Does Emacs suit for CommonLisp development?
What should I use for CL?

Ilisp is somewhat oldfashioned nowadays.

A very good interface to Common Lisp is SLIME.

Look at lispbox from  http://www.giagamonkeys.com/book 
Practical Common Lisp by Peter Seibel for a run-down of 
integrating slime/emacs and any Common Lisp implementation.

  Isn't lisp-mode enough ?

  I also have some files installed by gcl:

In comparison to slime, lisp-mode is *extremely* primitive. The
difference is very much like a comparison between a syntax
highlighting mode which allows advanced editing of common lisp
(lisp-mode) and a fully integrated common lisp development envrionment
(slime) which provides a lot of really neat features. 

Anyone working with CL and emacs who is not running slime is really
missing out on a lot.
