I tried the following:
$ cat args.sh
\#! /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64
(format t "~&~S~&" *args*)
$ ./args.sh
Couldn't load lisp heap image from ./args.sh
I can run lisp fine directly:
$ /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64
Welcome to Clozure Common Lisp Version 1.5-r13651 (DarwinX8664)!
?
Is it possible to write a shell script to run lisp code with Clozure CL? I am sure I am doing something silly.
I installed it from: http://openmcl.clozure.com/
Just following up on Charlie Martin's answer and on your subsequent question. The dx86cl64 --eval <code>
will fire up a REPL, so if you want to fire up a given script then quit, just add this to the end of your script: (ccl::quit)
. In the example you provided, this would do the trick:
#! /bin/bash
exec /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64 --eval '(progn (format t "hello script") (ccl::quit))'
A nicer script would be the following:
#! /bin/bash
exec /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64 -b -e '(progn (load "'$1'") (ccl::quit))'
Put that into a file, load-ccl-script.sh
(or other name of your choice). Then the following interaction works:
$ echo '(format t "weeee!")' > a.lisp
$ sh load-ccl-script.sh a.lisp
weeee!
$ _
The issue is in your shebang line:
\#! /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64
In a UNIX file, the first 16 bits is called the "magic number". It happens that the magic number for an executable script is the same bit configuration as the characters "#!". The first 16 bits of your file have the same configuration as "\#", and UNIX won't buy that.
It is possible to add magic numbers, but it isn't easy or portable, so what you need is a way to invoke the script. I'd suggest
#! /bin/bash
exec /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64
with appropriate arguments etc for your script. (The exec
builtin causes the current process to be loaded with the named executable without forking, so you don't have a spare process lying about.)
Update
In your particular case, you'll want something like
@! /bin/bash
exec /Applications/ccl/dx86cl64 --eval '(format t "~&~S~&" *args*)'
See the command line args for Clozure for why.
