Greg, So far I have two problems with axiom-sbcl-win to report:
1) The )cd command does not work as expected. Here is an example with my comments marked ---> ------- C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\Desktop>set AXIOM=C:\cygwin\home\Administrator\axiom-sbcl-win C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\Desktop>cd "c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\My Documents" C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\My Documents>C:\cygwin\home\Administrator\axiom-sbcl-win\bin\interpsys This is SBCL 1.0, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp. More information about SBCL is available at <http://www.sbcl.org/>. SBCL is free software, provided as is, with absolutely no warranty. It is mostly in the public domain; some portions are provided under BSD-style licenses. See the CREDITS and COPYING files in the distribution for more information. This is experimental prerelease support for the Windows platform: use at your own risk. "Your Kitten of Death awaits!" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Issue )copyright to view copyright notices. Issue )summary for a summary of useful system commands. Issue )quit to leave AXIOM and return to shell. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - (1) -> )sys cd C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\My Documents ---> The current system path is correct. (1) -> )cd The current AXIOM default directory is C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\ ---> This current directory is wrong. So this file is not found. (1) -> )co FOO.spad The file FOO.spad is needed but does not exist. ---> But we can set it explicitly (1) -> )cd "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\My Documents" The current AXIOM default directory is C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\My Documents\ ---> Now it works. (1) -> )co FOO.spad Compiling AXIOM source code from file C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ASUS\My Documents\FOO.spad using old system compiler. ... ---> The package is compiled (FASL) and loaded and executes as expected. Great! --------- Note: This problem occurs even if the path does not contain any spaces. But here is the second problem. 2) If I compile the same file twice, the existing compiler output is not replaced: (1) -> )co FOO.spad ... finalizing NRLIB FOO The system cannot find the file specified. The system cannot find the file specified. The system cannot find the path specified. The system cannot find the path specified. >> System error: Win32 Error [EMAIL PROTECTED] - 183 Cannot create a file when that file already exists. ----------- Note: This re-compile problem does *not* occur if the current directory is set to a path that contains no spaces.
