Custom Query (1030 matches)

Currently we have both m-x grep and Search Files menu item. It's fine to have the two ways to request this, but there is no reason why they should present their results in gratuitously different ways. M-x grep should be changed to present the output in a Search Files dialog (i.e. as if the user filled in all the fields in Search files and already hit Search once).

When launching the Lisp IDE from slime (require :cocoa), the GUI listener uses swank output streams, instead of the Listener window. This is due to missing bindings in make-mcl-listener-process. Adding:

                          (let ((*standard-input*  input-stream)
                                (*standard-output* output-stream)
                                (*error-output*    output-stream)
                                (*trace-output*    output-stream)
                                (*terminal-io*
                                  (if echoing
                                      (make-echoing-two-way-stream
                                       input-stream output-stream)
                                      (make-two-way-stream
                                       input-stream output-stream)))
                                (*query-io* *terminal-io*)
                                (*debug-io* *terminal-io*))

makes it work as expected.

Currently *wrap-lines-to-window* is a global preference that only takes effect when new windows are opened. We need a way to dynamically change this value on a per-window basis (on windows that have already been opened) with a menu item and command-key equivalent.

We should probably keep the global preference as it serves as a default. But it needs to be possible to change this flag dynamically on windows that are already open.

Fred had this capability and it was useful, and we need it in the CCL IDE.
