RE: LispWorks 4.2 Listener Question

If you are using the Windows bindings, the default is "Ctrl+Up".
If you are using the Emacs bindings, the default is "Meta+P"
 
You can change the bindings by under the Tools/Preferences menu item on the Emulation tab.
 
To find out what a key does or what key is bound to a command, select the Help menu
and use the Editing sub-menu. In this particular case, you would select the "Command to key"
menu item and enter "History Previous" as the command.
 
Good luck with Lisp &LW!

Subject: LispWorks 4.2 Listener Question

  I am a beginner in both Lisp and LispWorks.  Right now I am using the Listener
almost exclusively to test my understanding as I work my way through David
Touretzky's "A Gentle Introduction to Lisp."  I frequently like to use "command line
recall" to bring an expression back and change it slightly to see the result.  I have,
so far, only found one way to do this, and that is to use the arrows at the top of
the Listener window.  Is there a keyboard equivalent for this function?  It is
somewhat inconvenient to have to keep using the toolbar arrows.  I searched
the Listener section of the User Manual but found nothing.  Thanks.
 
Regards,
Jeff Stephens

RE: LispWorks 4.2 Listener Question

Of course, being a beginner, if you're searching frantically for
the "Meta" key, it's misnamed "Alt" on your typical PC keyboard.
