Common Lisp
===========

There seems to be two options now for working with lisp in Emacs, `SLIME <https://slime.common-lisp.dev/>`__ and `sly <https://github.com/joaotavora/sly>`__.
For no other reason other than it's new (=better?), I've gone with sly.

.. code-block:: elisp
   :project: emacs
   :filename: init.el

   (use-package sly
     :ensure t
     :config
     (setq sly-lisp-implementations '((sbcl ("sbcl")))))
