BTW, I don't think it should be limited to just passing a
url to the helper program.
I'd do it something like this:
dget module.name url_from_pragma
I still don't like the url being stored in the source file -- where
*specifically* on the network to get the file has nothing to do with
compiling the code, and fixing a path problem shouldn't involve editing a
source file -- there is too much risk.
For comparison, you don't have to specify a full path to the compiler of
where to get modules, they are specified relative to the configured
include paths. I think this model works well, and we should be able to
re-use it for this purpose also. You could even just use urls as include
paths:
-Ihttp://www.dsource.org/projects/dcollections/import
-Steve
