Hi,
I use CLisp on my Windows system at work. Given a task to create some
utility for the members of my team to use can I regard CLisp as a
viable tool?
I mean I can easily write some prog on Visual C++ with only one exe as
a product and I'd be an easy way to distribute it around the team. With
CLisp it's much more complicated.
On my local machine I can run CLisp scripts by having a line:
C:\clisp-2.33.1\full\lisp.exe -B "C:\clisp-2.33.1\full" -M
"C:\clisp-2.33.1\full\lispinit.mem" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 in my
clisp.bat and it's associated with *.lisp files on the system. I'm not
sure if the users of my utility would all create such an assoc on their
machines (Most of them are of completely windows origin and would
consider it as some Linux hack :)
If I throw in some graphical library (ltk or GTK-server) things get
even more complicated as I now have to redistribute all the necessary
binaries for the graphical environment.
Is there a tool that can help me wrap it in one windows exe file?
If this tool doesn't exist does it mean that I can solve my task with a
different approach?
Thanks a lot!
Andrew

If running installers is acceptable, you can turn all that into a
single executable installer. I use (I think on Edi Weitz's
recommendation) inno setup:
http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php
(it is free).

I've used that, or how about the CygWin * installer...
http://www.cygwin.com/ Oh wait :-)

I did not get a chance to try OSX Lispbox for "Pratical Common Lisp"
because i have several CLs installed on all my machines. But if there really
is an fear of install commitment... (besides LiveCDs) I wonder if the union
filesystem has a future ? (depending on CD speed/cache + working set
-vs- RAM)
It seems to be in OS/X but I wasn't sure if it was a Mach or BSD thing.
I first saw it in Plan 9. But then Gentoo's sys-fs/unionfs points to here
http://www.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu/project-unionfs.html
But anything like it comming for NTFS/windows ? junctions ??
But you still have to deal with the Registry...

Hallo
There is clisp 2.33.83 out there. Comes with install.bat and clisp.exe.
Works fine for me on a w98 box. (no ltk, gtk, emacs or ... in use)

If it is possible get one of the commercial Lisps, like Lispworks,
Corman Lisp or Allegro.
