If not, it should be seriously looked at. I guess something as simple as using the folder name as a base, and for multiple module names conflicting with the base library, unprefixed modules would be the standard library. Just that I want to create modules that will collide with names from other libraries/standard library, and I don't want to run into more namespace collision problems. The record scoping rules are painful enough. Jonathan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
