Having worked for a long time with emacs and slime, I'd have the opposite fear, to have to develop anything in lisp without them, like this is the case for LispWorks.
- kgwgk 7y ago> like this is the case for LispWorks. I'm not sure I understand what you meant there, but you can use LispWorks with Emacs/Slime.
- w3mmpp 7y agoOh then it's interesting because I thought it required to use their IDE. With Emacs/Slime, is it as integrated as with sbcl for example?
- kgwgk 7y agoNo, you may still want to use the IDE to access functionality that is not available through slime. But you have the choice. According to the slime documentation: "Most features work uniformly across implementations, but some are prone to variation. These include the precision of placing compiler-note annotations, XREF support, and fancy debugger commands (like 'restart frame')."
- 7thaccount 7y agoI'm sure you can use them just fine, but they also have their own tools I think.
