Running Lisp on Linux

Name: Anonymous 2011-10-31 13:45

Where does Linux keep `graphical-read-eval-print-loop` stuff?
It worked fine on Windows.

$ mred
path->complete-path: second argument is not a complete path: "./"

 === context ===
loop
find-library-collection-paths

exception raised by exception handler: standard-module-name-resolver: collection not found: "mzlib" in any of: (); original exception raised: path->complete-path: second argument is not a complete path: "./"
reference to undefined identifier: graphical-read-eval-print-loop

There should be well defined and consistent environment, that doesnt change every year. The `mred` from OP-post fails to run, because "working directory" isn't present. Windows has no such problem, because every program has it's "c:\program files" directory.

The sole fact, Linux allows absence of working directory is a big hint to its inconsistency.

We call that pilot error, since the user needs to define his env vars

No. We call that "Worse is Better", since OS doesn't care about consistency and allows user to easily put it into incosistent states.
