Everything else is optional. I think your assesment pretty much matches mine. My current intention is to sit down when I have time and see if I can figure out what changes, if any, we would have to make to the current guile.init in order to be able to rely on it, rather than the code in slib.scm. Greg Troxel's suggestion may also be worth considering -- that we might also provide an easy way to request execution of the older slib.scm code. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org and @debian.org; previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG starting 2002-11-03 = 14DD 432F AE39 534D B592 F9A0 25C8 D377 8C7E 73A4 _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
