Fix the zgap script #6

Open fingolfin opened 8 years ago

fingolfin commented 8 years ago

The zgap python script comes from HPC-GAP, where it resides in the bin dir, right next to gap.sh. The copy I added to this repository was not changed compared to that, and thus does not work correctly. This should be changed.

This will also require adapting the code in gap/znode.g, which I also just copied over. Note that this code uses ENTER_NAMESPACE directly, which seems like quite a hack -- I think we should rewrite it.

So one can try to get zgap working, by starting it from a dir containing bin/gap.sh, or (as I did) symlinking bin/gap.sh to the real gap.sh. This leads eventually to this (unsurprising) error:

Error, the library file 'znode.g' must exist and be readable at /Users/mhorn/Projekte/GAP/gap.github/lib/init.g:324 called from

Alternatively, one could also remove the zgap script and the corresponding zgap chapter, as well as its API.
