Appendix C: The MCL Menubar

Lisp menu

The Lisp menu contains the following commands:

Execute Selection (Command-E) Executes the current selection in the top editor window. If there is no selection and the insertion point is next to a parenthesis, the expression bounded by the parentheses is executed.

Execute All (Command-H) Executes the entire contents of the top editor window.

Abort (Command-period) Cancels the current computation and returns to the read-eval-print loop. If MCL was in a break loop, it leaves the loop.

Break (Command-comma) Suspends the current computation and enters a break loop. The state of the machine can be examined in the break loop. You can resume the computation by choosing the "Continue" command or by calling the function continue.

Continue (Command-slash) Continues the last operation halted by a break or by a continuable error.

Restarts... (Command-backslash) Provides a list of possible ways to restart the current operation.
