Contrarily, I prefer one list the reasons >of why current one is broken and corresponding sophisticated solutions.< I can answer both, adding a small change from what I have said last time :-) import foo; Imports in the current namespace the "foo" module name. import foo: *; Imports in the current namespace all the names inside foo, but not the "foo" module name itself. import foo: bar, baz; Imports in the current namespace the "bar" and "baz" names, but not the "foo" module name. bar and baz can be anything, packages too.
