Hello Waldek,
Sorry for being so late, holidays and co. Yes you're right, OBEY is used at several places, for file operations essentially. I do not want to say remove it completely but basically from my point of view it should only be used for the ')sys' command. The user has to know the basic commands available on his OS of course. I will try to explain the suggested modification later, festivities obliged. The aim to use SBCL on Windows is to have at the end a native Windows application. That's FriCAS relies only on msvcrt.dll, which need kernel32 etc... Not only Linux. I mean that.
