But I"d like to stress the fact that run-time and compile-time file
locations may differ, also things like dynamic loading vs static
linking come into play. In the end this is a build issue, not necessarily
a question of run-time semantics.
Sorry, I was being ambiguous. The natural strategy when

Note that include-files and loaded libraries are two different things,
also in CHICKEN, libraries are usually compiled, so the .sld convention
is only partially useful.
The convention (observed at least by Chibi, Gambit, and Gauche) is that
each .sld file contains one define-library form.

I'd love to see that.
Lassi: The fact that different Schemes have different conventions for where
their library files are is actually a great convenience to me when
developing SRFIs. All the actual co
Currently you can switch to R7RS more by installing the egg and running csc
with "-R R7RS -X R7RS", which is a mouthful, and could be abbreviated, that
doesn't look to me like too much hassle.
Anybody for a "-r7rs" option that does the above?
+1 for an easy command line flag!

Is there a consensus on how deeply to integrate R7RS into Chicken? It
seems mostly R7RS compliant as it stands. Are there any technical or
ideological blockers to basing core Chicken on R7RS-small in the future?
The main point of divergence seems to be the native module system, which
offers a
