+SLIME is a new Emacs mode for Common Lisp development.  Inspired by
+existing systems such Emacs Lisp and ILISP, we are working to create a
+fresh new environment for hacking Common Lisp in.
+
+Features:
+    * slime-mode: An Emacs minor-mode to enhance lisp-mode with:
+          o Code evaluation, compilation, and macroexpansion.
+          o Online documentation (describe, apropos, hyperspec).
+          o Definition finding (aka Meta-Point aka M-.).
+          o Symbol and package name completion.
+          o Automatic macro indentation based on &body.
+          o Cross-reference interface (WHO-CALLS, etc).
+          o ... and more.
+    * SLDB: Common Lisp debugger with an Emacs-based user interface.
+    * REPL: The Read-Eval-Print Loop ("top-level") is written in Emacs
+      Lisp for tighter integration with Emacs. The REPL also has
+      builtin "shortcut" commands similar those of the McCLIM
+      Listener.
+    * Compilation notes: SLIME is able to take compiler messages and
+      annotate them directly into source buffers.
+    * Inspector: Interactive object-inspector in an Emacs buffer.
