Use of '--' on the command-line
And here's a suggestion: it would be nice if Lispworks complied with Posix by ignoring what's after '--' on its command-line (all other compilers currently do so). AFAICUI, the current behavior is to ignore options unknown to Lispworks, and leave everything in *line-arguments-list*. This is almost OK because you can pass any user-specific option to your session, but the problem is the risk of collision with options that Lispworks already handles. For instance, you cannot currently say something like this: lispworks -load mystuff.lisp -- -build myprog ; myprog non-existant because Lispworks tries to handle -build itself. -- Resistance is futile.
