[Ecls-list] "broken at EVAL"?, and init.lsp

[Clayton Morrison]

Two newbie questions that I couldn't find exactly addressed in the  
mail archive or the docs (unless I missed something):

(1) The startup message for ecl ends with "Broken in EVAL" (I see in  
the mail list archive that others get this too).  What does this mean?

According to the documentation, ecl will automatically load init.lsp  
from the current working directory (which I assume is whatever  
directory I'm in when I launch ecl; I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.8,  
Darwin).  But this doesn't seem to be happening for me.

(2a) How can I get init.lsp to load when I start up ecl? (Is this  
related to (1)?)

(2b) Is it possible to fix the default directory where init.lsp lives  
so that I don't have to always be in precisely that directory when I  
start ecl?

Thanks,

-Clay
