26 ;;; Commentary:
28 ;; Hacked from tea.el by Olin Shivers (shivers@cs.cmu.edu). 8/88
30 ;; This file defines a lisp-in-a-buffer package (inferior-lisp mode)
31 ;; built on top of comint mode. This version is more featureful,
32 ;; robust, and uniform than the Emacs 18 version. The key bindings are
33 ;; also more compatible with the bindings of Hemlock and Zwei (the
34 ;; Lisp Machine emacs).
36 ;; Since this mode is built on top of the general command-interpreter-in-
37 ;; a-buffer mode (comint mode), it shares a common base functionality,
38 ;; and a common set of bindings, with all modes derived from comint mode.
39 ;; This makes these modes easier to use.
41 ;; For documentation on the functionality provided by comint mode, and
42 ;; the hooks available for customising it, see the file comint.el.
43 ;; For further information on inferior-lisp mode, see the comments below.
45 ;; Needs fixin:
46 ;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it
47 ;; doesn't know about the relationship between filename extensions and
48 ;; whether the file is source or executable. If you compile foo.lisp
49 ;; with compile-file, then the next load-file should use foo.bin for
50 ;; the default, not foo.lisp. This is tricky to do right, particularly
51 ;; because the extension for executable files varies so much (.o, .bin,
52 ;; .lbin, .mo, .vo, .ao, ...).
54 ;; It would be nice if inferior-lisp (and inferior scheme, T, ...) modes
55 ;; had a verbose minor mode wherein sending or compiling defuns, etc.
56 ;; would be reflected in the transcript with suitable comments, e.g.
57 ;; ";;; redefining fact". Several ways to do this. Which is right?
59 ;; When sending text from a source file to a subprocess, the process-mark can
60 ;; move off the window, so you can lose sight of the process interactions.
61 ;; Maybe I should ensure the process mark is in the window when I send
62 ;; text to the process? Switch selectable?

184 MULTIPLE PROCESS SUPPORT
185 ===========================================================================
186 To run multiple Lisp processes, you start the first up
187 with \\[inferior-lisp]. It will be in a buffer named `*inferior-lisp*'.
188 Rename this buffer with \\[rename-buffer]. You may now start up a new
189 process with another \\[inferior-lisp]. It will be in a new buffer,
190 named `*inferior-lisp*'. You can switch between the different process
191 buffers with \\[switch-to-buffer].
193 Commands that send text from source buffers to Lisp processes --
194 like `lisp-eval-defun' or `lisp-show-arglist' -- have to choose a process
195 to send to, when you have more than one Lisp process around. This
196 is determined by the global variable `inferior-lisp-buffer'. Suppose you
197 have three inferior Lisps running:
198 Buffer Process
199 foo inferior-lisp
200 bar inferior-lisp<2>
201 *inferior-lisp* inferior-lisp<3>
202 If you do a \\[lisp-eval-defun] command on some Lisp source code,
203 what process do you send it to?
205 - If you're in a process buffer (foo, bar, or *inferior-lisp*),
206 you send it to that process.
207 - If you're in some other buffer (e.g., a source file), you
208 send it to the process attached to buffer `inferior-lisp-buffer'.
209 This process selection is performed by function `inferior-lisp-proc'.
211 Whenever \\[inferior-lisp] fires up a new process, it resets
212 `inferior-lisp-buffer' to be the new process's buffer. If you only run
213 one process, this does the right thing. If you run multiple
214 processes, you can change `inferior-lisp-buffer' to another process
215 buffer with \\[set-variable].")

236 Customization: Entry to this mode runs the hooks on `comint-mode-hook' and

239 You can send text to the inferior Lisp process from other buffers containing
240 Lisp source.
241 `switch-to-lisp' switches the current buffer to the Lisp process buffer.
242 `lisp-eval-defun' sends the current defun to the Lisp process.

244 `lisp-eval-region' sends the current region to the Lisp process.
245 `lisp-compile-region' compiles the current region.
247 Prefixing the lisp-eval/compile-defun/region commands with
248 a \\[universal-argument] causes a switch to the Lisp process buffer after sending
249 the text.
251 Commands:\\<inferior-lisp-mode-map>
252 \\[comint-send-input] after the end of the process' output sends the text from the
253 end of process to point.
254 \\[comint-send-input] before the end of the process' output copies the sexp ending at point
255 to the end of the process' output, and sends it.
256 \\[comint-copy-old-input] copies the sexp ending at point to the end of the process' output,
257 allowing you to edit it before sending it.
258 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is nil (the default), \\[comint-insert-input] on old input
259 copies the entire old input to the end of the process' output, allowing
260 you to edit it before sending it. When not used on old input, or if
261 `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is non-nil, \\[comint-insert-input] behaves according to
262 its global binding.
263 \\[backward-delete-char-untabify] converts tabs to spaces as it moves back.
264 \\[lisp-indent-line] indents for Lisp; with argument, shifts rest
265 of expression rigidly with the current line.
266 \\[indent-sexp] does \\[lisp-indent-line] on each line starting within following expression.

605 ;;; CHANGE LOG
606 ;;; ===========================================================================
607 ;;; 7/21/92 Jim Blandy
608 ;;; - Changed all uses of the cmulisp name or prefix to inferior-lisp;
609 ;;; this is now the official inferior lisp package. Use the global
610 ;;; ChangeLog from now on.
611 ;;; 5/24/90 Olin
612 ;;; - Split cmulisp and cmushell modes into separate files.
613 ;;; Not only is this a good idea, it's apparently the way it'll be rel 19.
614 ;;; - Upgraded process sends to use comint-send-string instead of
615 ;;; process-send-string.
616 ;;; - Explicit references to process "cmulisp" have been replaced with
617 ;;; (cmulisp-proc). This allows better handling of multiple process bufs.
618 ;;; - Added process query and var/function/symbol documentation
619 ;;; commands. Based on code written by Douglas Roberts.
620 ;;; - Added lisp-eval-last-sexp, bound to C-x C-e.
622 ;;; 9/20/90 Olin
623 ;;; Added a save-restriction to lisp-fn-called-at-pt. This bug and fix
624 ;;; reported by Lennart Staflin.
626 ;;; 3/12/90 Olin
627 ;;; - lisp-load-file and lisp-compile-file no longer switch-to-lisp.
628 ;;; Tale suggested this.
629 ;;; - Reversed this decision 7/15/91. You need the visual feedback.
631 ;;; 7/25/91 Olin
632 ;;; Changed all keybindings of the form C-c <letter>. These are
633 ;;; supposed to be reserved for the user to bind. This affected
634 ;;; mainly the compile/eval-defun/region[-and-go] commands.
635 ;;; This was painful, but necessary to adhere to the gnumacs standard.
636 ;;; For some backwards compatibility, see the
637 ;;; cmulisp-install-letter-bindings
638 ;;; function.
640 ;;; 8/2/91 Olin
641 ;;; - The lisp-compile/eval-defun/region commands now take a prefix arg,
642 ;;; which means switch-to-lisp after sending the text to the Lisp process.
643 ;;; This obsoletes all the -and-go commands. The -and-go commands are
644 ;;; kept around for historical reasons, and because the user can bind
645 ;;; them to key sequences shorter than C-u C-c C-<letter>.
646 ;;; - If M-x cmulisp is invoked with a prefix arg, it allows you to
647 ;;; edit the command line.
