standard name of executable that doesn't clash with ghostscript
I'd really like the default name not to clash with ghostscript.
- What we have now:
- gsc, gsi
- Proposals:
- gamcom, gamint
- gambit-compiler, gambit-interpreter
- gamc, gami
- gambc, gambi
- gschc, gschi
- gamschc, gamschi

DESTDIR and Runtime Files
The problem I've had trying to install on Slackware[1] is that the system file locations are set when gsc-comp is compiled. Obviously gsc-comp needs the files in the installation directory, but after that the Gambit-C system should be able to find them where I've put them in my installation. I keep a source tree in /usr/local/src for my updates, but it would be better to have a fully running system that doesn't require it. When I've made packages in the past, I delete that source tree and then I can't load "~~/syntax-case" and other files.Trashbird1240 15:37, 27 June 2008 (EDT)
