OK, a single session transcript doesn't really capture the kewlness aspect of this, so, my turn to put some Lisp pr0n up. Caution: actually not that visually stimulating after all. Also, it's a big (as in, 1280x960 pixels) picture.

Clockwise from top right:

• The initial toplevel window, chock full of important debugging printf. Observe, though, that it's in the break loop, and that this has not stopped the other threads from running

• an xterm showing ps output with lots of sbcl processes in it

• a window on the emacs shell1 buffer, which is attached to a thread that incfs the global variable global every second

• a window on the emacs shell buffer, which is displaying a message referring to said global once a second.

Well, I think it's cool. I'm not about to start producing mpegs, though; you may just have to take my word for it that all of this is updating at once.

(Or you could check the cvs branch out and try it yourself, of course)
