Hi Waldek, Many thanks for this quick response and fix. Just tested on official FriCAS and the 2 problems you mentioned previously gone away.
The .fricas.input file is still not "read" but for my mid-term work it is not a big problem, my startup file is just displaying computation times and augmenting line length of output to 110. Maybe this is related to my Kali distribution on WSL2, I don't know. The )read command is to blame on my settings: (1) -> )sys pws >> System error: INTERNAL-SIMPLE-ERROR: The assertion !posix_spawnp(&pid, *p1, &file_actions, &attr, (void *)p1, environ) on line 65 of o/unixsys.c in function vsystem failed: No such file or directory (1) -> )sys pwd /home/greg (1) -> )sys ls -l .fricas.input -rw-r--r-- 1 greg greg 35 Feb 11 09:42 .fricas.input (1) -> )read .fricas.input The file .fricas.input is needed but does not exist. BTW great improvements have been done for gcl-2.7.1, thanks to you and Camm, it's a very good thing for me since I plan to code a wrapper in Common Lisp using my C wrapper to Julia compatible with GCL. I did one for Axiom in the past, a coding LISP game for me containing only "and", "or "and "not" keywords (no loops or conditionals). A direct wrapper to Fortran BLAS in fact. Now I have to look at documentation changes for the GCL-2.7 series FFI. - Greg PS / I Cc-ed to gcl-devel Le sam. 24 mai 2025 à 15:30, Waldek Hebisch <de...@fricas.org> a écrit : > On Fri, May 23, 2025 at 09:56:29PM +0200, Grégory Vanuxem wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I don't know if you can reproduce this: if I start FriCAS from $HOME it > > starts nicely but if I start in another directory see the snippet below. > > I tried with gcl2.7.1-4 from a Debian based distribution and after with > the > > official Debian sid and the same happens: > > > <snip> > > > > >> System error: > > INTERNAL-SIMPLE-PARSE-ERROR: "/home/greg//.fricas.input" is not a > valid > > pathname on host NIL > > > > > > >> System error: > > INTERNAL-SIMPLE-ERROR: The tag |top_level| is undefined. > > Should be fixed now. > > -- > Waldek Hebisch > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to fricas-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/fricas-devel/aDHJ1HqJwLlykCMl%40fricas.org > . >
