Hi from a newbie.
I am using (dr) scheme as a student, which means i have some basic
knowledge of lisp. I recently switched to "clisp". I am using debian
gnu/linux and installed the clisp package.
How can I read the command line parameters?
I couldn't find information via google and here is the only group which
i can post on this subject. If it was irrelevant, thanks for spending
your time.

what do you do if you need to find out "command line parameters" for
grep or ls? you do "man grep" and "man ls".
same here - "man clisp" is your friend.
if that does not show the CLISP manual page,
you installation is severely broken.
$ clisp --help
will also show a command line summary,
as well as the url <http://clisp.cons.org>
which will immediately point you to
2 pages:
1. "CLISP manual page for UN*X"
<http://clisp.cons.org/clisp.html>
2. CLISP Debian package page
<http://packages.debian.org/unstable/interpreters/clisp.html>
which will tell you right away that the man page is at
/usr/share/man/man1/clisp.1.gz

Searching for "clisp options" returns the CLISP man page
<http://clisp.cons.org/clisp.html> as the first hit ("feeling lucky")
Also, you might want to check out the CLISP FAQ list
<http://clisp.cons.org/faq.html> linked from the main page.
This _will_ save _you_ a lot of time.
In fact, your question _is_ answered there at
<http://clisp.cons.org/faq.html#opt>!

I think Can Burak wanted to learn how a program in clisp
can read the command line arguments passed to itself. Not
the command line options of starting the clisp.

The address above talks about clisp command line arguments
not the method of reading the values of command line arguments
of a software programmed/produced by a clisp compiler.
I think trying to understand the question _will_ save
_everybody_ a lot of time ;-) (OTOH I agree that the question
could be made more explicit/less ambiguous but the fact
that at least one poster understood the question is an
evidence that it is possible to understand it the right way)

http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#argv
is a good start.
I found it by googling for "argv clisp." One could argue that's
cheating.
cheers,

I see.
David Sletten covered this case already.

You need to upgrade to a newer version of Google:
http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/environment-dict.html#argv
http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/quickstart.html#script-exec
There is some disagreement about the use of the words "argument" and
"parameter", but the convention is generally to speak of command line
"arguments". This is reflected in C, Java, etc... whose main() functions
usually refer to argc, argv, or args, for instance.
