I have installed working gcl.
I am reading its manual.
How do I set the path to the directory where plisp code is?
How do I load the package?
How do I see its current path?
I guess I am not getting the syntax correct as it is
different from emacs.
Is there a .gcl file where you can put preferences?

Hi there.
If you're still there, welcome to GNU Common Lisp. You cane get more

Say there is a file called test.lsp on the C: drive with the line :
(print "HELLO WORLD")
then
(load "test.lsp")
Loading test.lsp
"HELLO WORLD"
Finished loading test.lsp

Don't know sorry. On Unix you could probably do (system "pwd")
On Windows (system "dir"), but that also prints a directory listing.

Use init.lsp in the current directory eg.

Just curious here, I notice that if I have init.lsp with one line in
it:
(load "test1.lsp")
And test1.lsp contains:
(print "hello, world")
running gcl will output:

Possibly some of those are the return value of the print expression.
Try putting this in `test1.lsp':
(progn (print "hello, world") 'foo)

Yes, that worked, but it's also stopped happening the other way. :/

As in it doesn't print "hello, world" at all and doesn't print 'foo?
Try putting in this:
(eval-when (:compile-toplevel)
(print "compile-toplevel")
'result-of-compile-toplevel)
(eval-when (:load-toplevel)
(print "load-toplevel")
'result-of-load-toplevel)
(eval-when (:execute)
(print "execute")
'result-of-execute)

I meant the multiple print statements stopped happening.

Error: :COMPILE-TOPLEVEL is an undefined situation for EVAL-WHEN.
Fast links are on: do (si::use-fast-links nil) for debugging
Error signalled by EVAL-WHEN.
Broken at EVAL-WHEN. Type :H for Help.

Then use the older symbols: compile load and execute instead of
:compile-toplevel, :load-toplevel and :execute.
