We've released SLIME 1.0-beta.  SLIME is an Emacs mode for interacting
with Common Lisp.  We are now in "beta phase" and are focussing on
robustness and try to make SLIME as bug free as possible.

You can download the code and user manual from our home page:
  http://www.common-lisp.net/project/slime/
Or of course just check it out from CVS.

Please send feedback to our mailing list, which is readily accessible
via NNTP on server news.gmane.org as group gmane.lisp.slime.devel.

We hope you enjoy using SLIME!

The release notes are included here:

* 1.0 beta (August 2004)

** autodoc global variables
The slime-autodoc-mode will now automatically show the value of a
global variable at point.

** Customize group
The customize group is expanded and better-organised.

** slime-interactive-eval
Interactive-eval commands now print their results to the REPL when
given a prefix argument.

** slime-conservative-indentation
New Elisp variable. Non-nil means that we don't exclude def* and
with-* from indentation-learning. The default is nil.

** (slime-setup)
New function to streamline setup in ~/.emacs

** Modeline package
The package name in the modeline is now updated on an idle timer. The
message should now be more meaningful when moving around in files
containing multiple IN-PACKAGE forms.

** XREF bugfix
The XREF commands did not find symbols in the right package.

** REPL prompt
The package name in the REPL's prompt is now abbreviated to the last
`.'-delimited token, e.g. MY.COMPANY.PACKAGE would be PACKAGE. This
can be disabled by setting SWANK::*AUTO-ABBREVIATE-DOTTED-PACKAGES* to
NIL.

** CMUCL source cache
The source cache is now populated on `first-change-hook'. This makes
M-. work accurately in more file modification scenarios.

** SBCL compiler errors
Detect compiler errors and make some noise. Previously certain
problems (e.g. reader-errors) could slip by quietly.

* 1.0 alpha (June 2004)
