No, [include] is the low-level mechanism which must be used to implement
the higher-level [import]. The main difference being that [import] needs
to read information from all the (findlib) packages which are being used
to compile your project and determine all the modules from each package
which are registered as providing [List]. The programmer doesn't need to
know the exact name of each module.
Does that make things any clearer?
Cheers,
David
