Looks good, Ed. But how do you include unit tests (without manually finding the files and calling run-file)? Also, do you think it's possible to make an automated tool to do the transition, at least partially? I sort of like the current directory organization, and don't think it's disorganized. The thing is, outside of the core, there is usually one help (or occasionally two) file per module, covering the whole module. How can that be represented with your system?
