Defined package-local-nicknames are not shown in Emacs code-completion

[mdbergmann]

See attached screenshots.

Not sure if this is as designed or if this is related to CCL. However, nicknames are shown OK as completion in SBCL. And I'm assuming that that should be the case also for CCL.

In the images as example 'trivia' where a local nickname was setup as 'tr'.

I'd assume that's an issue with whatever Emacs interface you are using.

I'm using Sly. So the backend for Sly in Slynk and that gets its data from the Lisp implementation. It would be surprising if Sly/Slynk behaves different depending on which Lisp impl is uses. But, I'll check on that.

Obviously it does so! Slynk is a portability library and works differently on different Lisp implementations.

See https://github.com/joaotavora/sly/search?q=package-local-nicknames&unscoped_q=package-local-nicknames - only SBCL, ECL, and ABCL have PLN implementations for them. Sly (and probably also Slime) needs to define one for CCL.

@xrme Closeable - not a CCL issue.

I'll close this as not being a CCL bug. If Slynk wants new features in CCL, let's talk about those in other issues.

OK, thanks for the clarification. That seems to be straight forward to add in Slynk.

Yep.
