18.9 Execute mode

The Listener is actually a special type of editor window, which is run in a mode known as execute mode . This means that, as well as the normal keyboard commands available to the editor, a number of additional commands are available which are especially useful when working interactively.

These commands are useful when you are repeating a series of similar commands:

    Press Alt+P or Ctrl+C Ctrl+P to display the previous event on the history list. In Windows editor emulation, this History Previous command is bound to Ctrl+Up .

    Press Alt+N or Ctrl+C Ctrl+N to display the next event on the history list (this is not available if you are at the end of the history list). In Windows editor emulation, this History Next command is bound to Ctrl+Down .

    Press Alt+R or Ctrl+C Ctrl+R to perform a search of the history list.

    Press Ctrl+C Ctrl+F to get a list of items in the history.

    Press Ctrl+C Ctrl+I to inspect the current value (that is, the value of the Common Lisp variable * ).

    Press Alt+K to abandon the current input.

    Press Alt+Shift+B to get a backtrace in the debugger.

    Press Alt+Shift+A to abort in the debugger.

    Press Alt+Shift+C to continue in the debugger.

    Press Alt+Shift+C to display the previous frame in the debugger.

    Press Alt+Shift+N to display the nexy frame in the debugger.

    Press Alt+Shift+E to edit the current frame in the debugger.

    Press Alt+Shift+V to print the variables of the current frame in the debugger.

For more details about other keyboard commands available in the editor, see The Editor, and the Editor User Guide .
