As Juan said, I find it simpler to simply add in the main lisp file at the top level the statements to initialize and start standalone applications. If this can be of help, you can also make the wanted code conditional for the standalone-only mode. For instance, in a build script for an application of mine, I add: (pushnew :mm-ecl-standalone *features*) Before issuing the compile commands. The application code can thus use: #+:mm-ecl-standalone ; Place standalone-mode form here And that code can deal with command line arguments, setup a debugger wrapper and call the application's main init code... -- Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
