There also still the possibility to have, per namespace, a file that just loads other files (belonging to the same namespace) with one contributor per file. But I see this as counter productive because there will be a lot of little files per namespace, and sometimes there will be problems with the orders of the functions definitions eventually leading to the creation of several files per namespace per contributo ... so not a so great idea after all :-) > >>> Any thoughts? >> >> Using gen-class you can have a namespace that is runnable from the Java >> command >> line by providing a main() method.
