Hello Javier,

I like the idea of not bundling SBCL and Stump into a large executable.
A small package makes sense when the packaging tools ensure the
dependencies are installed properly.  cl-launch looks useful and I may
revisit it at some point, but since Stump is now restricted to SBCL, I
ended up using a simple shell script.

stumpwm

#/bin/sh

sbcl --no-sysinit --no-userinit --load %%PREFIX%%share/stumpwm/load.lisp
---

share/stumpwm/load.lisp
---
(in-package :cl-user)

(require :asdf)

(setf asdf:*central-registry*
       (list* '*default-pathname-defaults*
              #p"%%ASDF_REGISTRY%%"
              asdf:*central-registry*))

(require :stumpwm)
(stumpwm:stumpwm)

(quit)

Thanks,

Joseph
