would you consider adding a --version command arg (or -V, whatever)
to ecl that would print ecl's version number and then exit?
this would provide a clean interface for scripts that need version
info before they build software
currently my script does
echo '(progn (format t "~a" (lisp-implementation-version)) (quit))'
| ecl | head -1 | cut -d' ' -f4
to figure out what ecl version is running
pinhead:/Lisp/cm hkt$ openmcl --version
1.0
pinhead:/Lisp/cm hkt$ sbcl --version
SBCL 0.9.15
thanks, rick
