6.2 slime-autodoc-mode

slime-autodoc-mode is an additional minor-mode for automatically showing information about symbols near the point. For function names the argument list is displayed and for global variables we show the value. This is a clone of eldoc-mode for Emacs Lisp.

The mode can be enabled in the slime-setup call of your ~/.emacs:

     (slime-setup :autodoc t)
