connect to my pc

Hi

Can someone connect to my pc and fix my .emacs file, so that my SLIME auto-completion works ?
I tried many things, but nothing.

Thanks

My recommendation is to a post a succinct but precise recipe, including:
  - the relevant contents of your init file
  - what steps you took (e.g., "I opened a buffer in lisp-mode, typed
    ‘with-’, and ...")
  - what you expected to happen
  - what actually happened

IMHO that will be the most effective way to take advantage of the list's
combined wisdom.

Not sure if that's Stefan offering to help but, if so, you couldn't ask
for better. Certainly you should listen to him over me :)

Might not want to post that stuff publicly, though...

If it's not public, it's not fun,

I'll try explaining what *does* work for me, and perhaps Haris can
explain where his experience differs.

Here's what I tried:
- Place this[1] file as ~/.emacs.d/init.el
- Start Emacs
- ‘C-x b foo RET’ (switch to a new buffer named "foo")
- ‘M-x lisp-mode RET’ (put the buffer in lisp-mode)
- ‘M-x slime RET’ (start SLIME)

I now have completion via SLIME/auto-complete in both the "foo" buffer I
created and the SLIME REPL buffer.

Haris, please give this a try and let us know what doesn't work.
