How to customize the SBCL REPL?

Question

Is there a way to customize the SBCL REPL in a way that makes it work similar to the CLISP REPL. The standard SBCL REPL isn\'t really usable on Mac OS X. I can\'t use the arrow

Answer 1

Most of the people use SBCL REPL with SLIME. It gives it by far much more features, then readline, that is used in CLISP. If you aren't comfortable with using Emacs, you can try ABLE (available through quicklisp) - a very simple editor, that supports some basic REPL features on par with readline, but as well has basic code highlighting and built-in Hyperspec.
