Compile script to .exe with attached files

Hello,

I assume that you do want to load your Lisp files from the same Directory (any) as your new exe.
Then you may use (main-args 0) to get the path+name of your running exe.
Extract the path and build full path of your files to load.

Thank you @HPW. My description in the post made my query not clear. I just modified it. Would you please have look at it?

Hello,

Just one question: Can't you combine your 3 lsp files into one?
That would be the easiest way.

Good evening,

I have successfully used the buildexe and exehead scripts on Linux, but failed on MS Windows. I am using newLISP 10.7.5 on both platforms.

What am I missing?

Thank you.

It took a long time for me to get back to this. The actual problem was me getting the file order backward. I was fooled when I concatenated the two files into a single file with the main last and it worked. The main goes first.

I did some digging around - use vim to look at the executable and read the source code; it was an interesting journey. It was educational : converting a list to a string, etc.

Oddly, the main is just a string with embedded newlines, while the CSV library is text (with [text]; and [/text] delimiters).

newLISP is great!
