Hi Greg:
I've already got that functionality:
;; -------------------------------------------------------------------
load-with-path 'file: 'do file, if not already loaded,
and not found in local folder search a block of paths.
;; -------------------------------------------------------------------
import 'word: converts 'word to %file + .r
and calls load-with-path
;; -------------------------------------------------------------------
modules {space-delimited words in string} - multiple functionality
also leverages load-with-path and has built-in debugging.
One could put a keywork into the docstring and then
I could look for a keyword in third :pick ..... that is, parse the docstring.
thanks
tim
