You singled out SLIME, but you've mentioned before that you use LispWorks - do you think it's also "not great"? Just curious ...

Especially the REPL of SLIME / GNU Emacs.

LispWorks provides a better REPL experience.

Do you use LW's built-in editor, or emacs?

The built-in editor. With LispWorks I don't use GNU Emacs. I have GNU Emacs configured, so that I could use it, but I don't... I use SLIME with SBCL, but mostly because of SBCL, which is a great implementation.

I'm faster and more in the flow with the LispWorks IDE.
