OK, thanks.   I see that, among other things, the following are supported
(at least from eyeballing the source code)

     --eval
    --batch
    --noinform

and they are part of what I was looking for.
However,  --batch does not seem to work to do anything that it name
would suggest -- e.g. it still lands me into the REPL (which I don't want).
Furthermore, --eval does not print the result of evaluation.  For
example, trying

     abcl --noinform --batch --eval '(lisp-implementation-version)'

lands me squarely into the REPL with no printed result.  I was expecting
"0.24.0-dev" printed on the standard output stream, and control back to the
shell.
