Hemlock editor

Post by j831526 » Sun Nov 30, 2014 11:41 pm

I'm running Clozure CCL downloaded and installed from the Mac app store (on a Mac - obviously:) It has the Hemlock editor built in, and this fits my needs. For various reasons I do NOT consider any of the Emacs flavors an option for me.

I want to add some my own functions to make some minor changes. Hemlock has a user guide which describes the built-in functions and how to create plugins etc. BUT I haven't seen where Hemlock looks for user defined functions. Do I define them in the ccl-init.lisp file in my home directory? This feels wrong because that file is used by the REPL. Does Hemlock have its own init file?

Thanx - Charlie

This discussion may be relevant. It mentions "ccl-ide-init.lisp" which isn't documented.

CLiki mentions ~/hemlock-init.lisp init file.
cl-2dsyntax is my attempt to create a Python-like reader. My mirror of CLHS (and the dark themed version). Temporary mirrors of aferomentioned: CLHS and a dark version.

Re: Hemlock editor - modify mode line

I'm finding the Hemlock manuals largely inscrutable. Is there an easy way to display the current line and column numbers of the cursor location? Most editors do this by default.

Thanx - Charlie
