Readline setup for lisps (hyphenated completion, in particular)? (alien.top)

Hi y'all,

I'm experimenting with Readline config (generating completions, setting up keybindings, etc.) for CL REPLs. It's working, with a single exception: completions are split over hyphens, e.g. typing mak, I get make and makunboud as the only completions. Even though there're make-array and make-instance in the completions file. Anyone knows how to allow completing mak to make-array, make-instance and other hyphenated words? Any other gotchas for Lisp-specific Readline setup?

Right, thanks for the gist!

I'm not yet using cl-repl because I want to have distinct tools composed to a usable whole or at least try to do that before surrendering to complete setups like cl-repl. But thanks for the recommendation anyway!
