Hello, Some work has been done to start FriCAS without setting the FRICAS environment variable. I created a Windows installer without a .bat file to start FRICASsys but when executing directly FRICASsys, it still complains about this environment variable:
debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-TYPE-ERROR in thread #<THREAD tid=2536 "main thread" RUNNING {1000FF0003}>: |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!| does not designate a condition class. Type HELP for debugger help, or (SB-EXT:EXIT) to exit from SBCL. restarts (invokable by number or by possibly-abbreviated name): 0: [ABORT] Exit from the current thread. (SB-KERNEL:ALLOCATE-CONDITION |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!|) 0] ba Backtrace for: #<SB-THREAD:THREAD tid=2536 "main thread" RUNNING {1000FF0003}> 0: (SB-KERNEL:ALLOCATE-CONDITION |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!|) 1: (MAKE-CONDITION |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!|) 2: (MAKE-CONDITION |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!|) [more] 3: (SB-KERNEL:COERCE-TO-CONDITION |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!| SIMPLE-ERROR ERROR) [more] 4: (ERROR |Environment variable FRICAS is not set!|) 5: (|initroot|) 6: (|fricas_init|) 7: (|fricas_restart|) 8: ((LAMBDA NIL :IN FRICAS-LISP::SAVE-CORE-RESTART)) 9: ((FLET SB-UNIX::BODY :IN SB-IMPL::START-LISP)) 10: ((FLET "WITHOUT-INTERRUPTS-BODY-3" :IN SB-IMPL::START-LISP)) 11: (SB-IMPL::%START-LISP) 12: ("foreign function: #x1400447C5") 13: ("foreign function: #x140009C00") 0] I can upload the installer for Windows somewhere if necessary. On Windows, via advanced system parameters, this variable can be set and FriCAS be used directly after a click on the FriCAS start menu entry. - Greg -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
