slime-1.2.1 Portfile

I'll give this a try and commit it if it works.

Hi Mark,

Committed with some changes:

1. The portfile has a variant, +devel, that uses the emacs-devel

port. This is needed to make updating work correctly. There is some fussing in the portfile to get the name of the emacs binary correct.

2. The modification of doc/makefile is now done in a post-patch

phase. This allows applying patches automatically in a patch phase if needed in the future.

3. "system" seems to be adequate to do the build, "exec" isn't

needed. Also, with "system" you don't have to suppress output to stderr. (It's always a bad idea to suppress output that may potentially aid in debugging.)

4. I made some formatting changes. This was just to make it easier

(for me) to see what is going on. Feel free to change it, but in DP, 8 space tabs are preferred.

5. clisp, gcl, openmcl and sbcl are the only available common lisps.

Acl2 is not allegro common lisp but "applicative common lisp", a theorem proving system built (in DP) using openmcl. maxima-lisp is obsolete; it was just a special version version of clisp used to build maxima. sbcl should work too but wasn't mentioned.

I tried it out on my emacs-devel and it worked.

Thanks!

Best Wishes, Greg

I added a note that sbcl, although it works on OS X, is currently broken with slime. I believe this is a known issue and may be fixed with the 0.9.9 release in a few days.
