Theme: newlisp ignore my init.lsp

Excuse me for my bad English, please!

I think, that using init.lsp by newlisp is not correct...

Example:

I have newlisp-directory "c:\newlisp" and file "init.lsp" in it.
init.lsp contain only one string:

(println "TEST-TEST-TEST")

See my dialog with CMD.EXE below:

Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]
(C) Copyright 1985-2000 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\alex>set path
Path=C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;

C:\Documents and Settings\alex>set path=c:\newlisp;%path%

C:\Documents and Settings\alex>set path
Path=c:\newlisp;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;

C:\Documents and Settings\alex>newlisp
newLISP v.8.4.0 on Win32 MinGW, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

> (exit)

C:\Documents and Settings\alex>cd c:\newlisp

C:\newlisp>newlisp
TEST-TEST-TEST
newLISP v.8.4.0 on Win32 MinGW, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

> (exit)

The end of dialog

It is not correct, I think. Newlisp must use "init.lsp" NOT from current
directory, but from directory where newlisp is located. Current
directory must be ignored.

How do You think?

that makes sense, look for it in the next version
