If only the problems of slow startup and unfriendly error messages could be solved - it would be like a dream coming true.



I think the spec library that they're putting together right now might be able to solve the error messages. What I'm waiting for is to be able to hit something like dot in my ide and see a list of suggestions, I'm not sure if spec can be leveraged to that extent.



Completing the first half of a symbol that I've been typing already works reasonably well with Cursive. What I'm looking for is something that looks at the result of an expression and figures out what other functions can accept that as input. Matching up specced postconditions with preconditions might work, but I'm not sure how well.
