Exactly what I feel. I miss the integrated debugger and trace facilities the most. You can see exactly what your code is doing in lisp. What happened 10 years ago was the dot.com craze and the demand for Java programmers went through the roof. I am now trying to get back into Lisp maybe through Clojure too.


I wish they would fix this in SBCL. The stepper is such a pain to set up and use. Smalltalk has really spoilt me in this regard.
