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.
