I am trying to use Mathematica v5.2 on the command-line, and I get an error
message i don't understand :

$ /Applications/Mathematica\ 5.2.app/Contents/MacOS/MathKernel
Mathematica 5.2 for Mac OS X x86 (32-bit)

General::stop: -- Message text not found -- (Get::noopen)
In[1]:= 10!
Out[1]= 3628800   <<<<<<and it works from here>>>>>>>>

Where do these errors come from ? 

Am I obliged to have a sysinit.m file and where should i put it ?

Thanks a lot, i would like to make a Lisp program ask Mathematica
to do the hard job, and parse the FullForm result in Lisp. Am i on the
right way ?

Thanks to all,

   -JG
