I can connect fine to the swank instance and can evaluate valid symbols fine. The problem that I have is that when I enter a symbol that has not been defined, I don't get an error when I press enter.
I'm not sure why this is happening. But, we should make sure that everything is setup properly for you to get a REPL at the terminal if an error happened within swank-gambit. First, get my newest version of swank-gambit: http://github.com/jlongster/swank-gambit/ I just pushed some changes to the way I'm redirecting output to SLIME. There was a possibility that I was swallowing the REPL that Gambit created when the error occurred. Second, change the SWANK-DEBUG variable to #t at the top of swank-gambit.scm. This will output messages to the terminal and REPLs should fire up when an error occurs within swank-gambit. Third, make sure you run swank-gambit with "-:dar" which tells it to create REPLs for any error on all threads. The command should look like: $ gsi -:dar swank-gambit.scm Try it with all that. Does a REPL appear at the terminal with an exception? What is the error if so? - James
