[Openmcl-devel] Clozure CL 1.2 released - type of cocoa-application ?

hello;

when one starts the ide, it does not follow the documented  
initialization protocol. that is, the init file is not loaded.

if one incorporates the simple init file loading logic from start-ccl  
into the toplevel-function for a cocoa application, that succeeds.
is some reason to avoid this?
is there some reason that one would not want to add the call to start- 
ccl at that point?

the code describes a situation, wherein the only argument is a  
process identifier, but one could extract startup parameters out of  
the info.plist file. it's straight-forward to do, just a bit fragile  
should an error occur.

any reason - other than the problems with error handling at that  
stage, to not do this?

thanks,
