Shell script for using interpreters

[Sreeranga Rajan]

I would like to know how I could write a shell script to perform the
following actions:
			enter lisp interpreter
			load all the required files
			take input from the keyboard after loading
			the files

I tried writing the following script, which failed to take in the
input from the keyboard. 
			lisp << 'EOF'
			(load <filename>)
			'EOF'
This loads the file and takes the input as EOF, which exits the Franz
lisp interpreter without waiting for my keyboard input.
Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
