Hi, Serafeim.  Yes, at the moment there really is only the Emacs Slime
documentation to go by
(http://common-lisp.net/project/slime/#documentation), and reading
ecl-slime.vim for the key mappings.
In general, I have tried to provide the same features that Slime
provides and use similar keystrokes.  For example, Slime defines C-M-x
as slime-eval-defun, Slim-vim defines <Leader>x as the same feature.
If you felt like drafting up rough documents, we would love it!  :)
