PROGRAM:

NAME

clisp-link - link a new external module to CLISP[1].

SYNOPSIS

clisp-link [create] [module] [file...]

clisp-link [add] [source] [destination] [module...]

clisp-link [run] [source] [module...]

clisp-link [install] [module...]

DESCRIPTION

This shell script operates on CLISP[1] module sets and linking sets:

· creates new module sets out of source files

· adds module sets to a linking set to produce a new linking set

· runs CLISP[1] with module sets added

· Only in CLISP[1] built without configure flag --without-dynamic-modules.

installs new module sets for general use

OPTIONS

create
The command

$ clisp-link create module file ...

creates a module set in module directory which refers (via symbolic links) to files
file... The files are expected to be modules of their own.

add
The command

$ clisp-link add source destination module ...

combines the linking set in directory source and the modules in directories module...
to a new linking set, in the directory destination which is newly created.

run
The command

$ clisp-link run source module ...

runs the linking set in directory source, with the modules in directories module...
Unless CLISP[1] has been built with the configuration option
--without-dynamic-modules, the loading will be performed using SYS::DYNLOAD-MODULES.
Otherwise - this is much slower - a temporary linking set will be created and deleted
afterwards.

install
Only in CLISP[1] built without configure flag --without-dynamic-modules.

The command

$ clisp-link install module ...

installs the modules in directories module... into CUSTOM:*LIB-DIRECTORY* or, if it is
not writable to the user (e.g., if a system-wide CLISP[1] installation is used and the
user does not have administrative privileges), into CUSTOM:*USER-LIB-DIRECTORY*.

Variable CUSTOM:*USER-LIB-DIRECTORY* is initially set to (MERGE-PATHNAMES[2] ".clisp/"
(USER-HOMEDIR-PATHNAME[3])) if that directory exists, and can be reset in the RC file.

Note
Do not add CUSTOM:*USER-LIB-DIRECTORY* to CUSTOM:*LOAD-PATHS* or under any element
thereof. Use REQUIRE instead of LOAD to load dynamic modules.
For this command to work, each module directory must contain a Makefile with a
clisp-module-distrib target which uses LN to distribute the files necessary to run the
module into destdir. This is in addition to the general requirement that link.sh is
present.
