[REBOL] Re: serious proposition...WAS: RE: Standards

Andrew,
> Provides: [CD LD MD WD]
My include system uses, in the header: Public-Functions: [cd ls md wd] I think Provides is a better word, since they aren't always functions, and more concise too. My system also doesn't have a concept of dependencies that the Needs block addresses (yet). It's up to the programmer to write in the header somewhere which words are needed and up to the user to check. I've been planning to add that at some stage but haven't figured out the details of how to handle dependencies with different versions properly yet. There are lots of issues there. Got to think about it some more and design properly before jumping out into the blue. Anton.
