Dear Gap Forum,

Rereading the message I just submitted here, I realized it could easily
be misinterpreted. It's meant as yet another suggestion, not a
description of how things work. I'm sorry for not being clear about
that.

one could realize such project files using a shell script similar to
the following:

#!/bin/sh
gap=/usr/local/bin/gap-3.4
lib="/usd/gap/3.4/lib/;/usd/fceller/gap/lib/"
mem="8m"
if [ -e .gaprc -a `pwd` != '/usd1/fceller' ];  then
    exec /usr/local/bin/gap-3.4 -b -m $mem -l $lib .gaprc $*
else
    exec /usr/local/bin/gap-3.4 -b -m $mem -l $lib $*
fi

One would need to set the paths correctly and the `pwd` test needs to
be replaced if the script should be global one for all users, but I
hope the idea is clear.

best wishes
Frank

PS: We might provide a "-r" option to avoid reading the global ".gaprc"
in the next kernel patch.
