Re: How to avoid siteinit and init in shell file?

I have found the answer. when invoking a program on the #! line, all 
the text after the program name is passed as a single argument.

I've also found that setting *load-verbose* to nil stops most of the 
text printed by load, but not all of it.

So, does anyone know if there's a way to invoke LispWorks via command 
line and without saying "-siteinit - -init -", avoid the loading of 
those files?

TIA,
