- Subject: Symbol arguments to require
I'd like to make available some of the Kawa libraries I've written for
general use. A (smallish) difficulty is that all my (require ...)'s refer
to needed modules by absolute class name rather than by symbols. This
makes my code not work on other Schemes, and ties Kawa users to the class
names I've chosen. But my modules have to do this, since the few symbolic
names, such as 'list-lib, that Kawa understands are wired into
kawa.standard.require, so I couldn't add new ones and have them useable by
anyone else.
What should I do?
