I use the following function to run shell commands:
(defun sh (cmd)
#+clisp (shell cmd)
#+ecl (si:system cmd)
#+sbcl (sb-ext:run-program "/bin/sh" (list "-c" cmd) :input nil :output*standard-output*)
#+clozure (ccl:run-program "/bin/sh" (list "-c" cmd) :input nil :output*standard-output*)))
For example, How to specify the current directory for command python -m CGIHTTPServer ?
Sincerely!
In ECL you can use EXT:CHDIR before SYSTEM, which changes both default-pathname-defaults and the value of the current directory, as understood by the operating system and C library.
BTW: If possible use (EXT:RUN-PROGRAM “command” list-of-args) instead
