slime-enable-concurrent-hints

This is just me dumping something I keep forgetting. When you are live coding you often block the repl, you can call swanks handle-requests function to keep the repl which works but the minibuffer likely wont be showing function signatures (or other hints) any more. To enable this add this to your .emacs file and call using M-x slime-enable-concurrent-hints

(defun slime-enable-concurrent-hints ()
  (interactive)
  (setf slime-inhibit-pipelining nil))
