Reset state in Common Lisp

Question

Newbie Common Lisp question here.

Is there a way to reset the state of the environment? What I mean, is there some command that brings the REPL back to the same state it

Answer 1

Use C-c M-o, as given in REPL menu's Clear Buffer

Answer 2

Not in general, no. I occasionally want to do something like that, so my workflow is generally to create a new package to hold whatever project I'm starting, then when I want to reset things I use DELETE-PACKAGE. I never do any work in the CL-USER package, since different implementations have different things stuffed into it.
