slime-connect failure

[rpx99]

When a ssh connection is established to a server running sbcl with a swank created remotely a slime-connect fails as it needs the micros fork of slime and therefore a micros server running.

LEM tries to connect but fails with a timeout:

The repl shows:

The user does not know what is going on.

You need to use micros, not swank.

Oh, you mean that you should give the appropriate error message. Thanks for the feedback.

This behavior has changed, it no longer errors but just hangs now, which is probably worse
