* Description

A Spacemacs contribution layer providing Common Lisp support via [[https://github.com/slime/slime][SLIME]].

* Install

If you have previously installed slime in any other way, it is recommended that
you uninstall it before proceeding. You should clean up any config files tied to
slime that are left behind as well. Linux users can just purge the slime package
if it was a distribution install.

To use this contribution, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(common-lisp))
#+END_SRC

This layer defaults to using [[http://www.sbcl.org/][sbcl]]. If you want to use a different implementation
of Common Lisp, you can specify it in your =~/.spacemacs=

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defun dotspacemacs/config ()
    (setq inferior-lisp-program "/path/to/your/lisp"))
#+END_SRC
