Hi all, I've added a new feature similar to the special resource: prefix on paths. You can now use a vocab: prefix, and Factor will search vocabulary roots for that path for you.
For example, instead of "resource:extra/beer/list.txt" ascii file-lines you can write "vocab:beer/list.txt" ascii file-lines This is very useful for data files stored alongside vocabularies, because it is more robust than a resource: path; you can move the vocab from extra to basis, for instance, and it will continue to work. Also, if you have vocab roots outside of the Factor source directory (resource:) previously there was no way to specify a logical path which was relative to this vocabulary. Now, you can just use vocab:. Note that for nested vocabs, the separator in a vocab: path is / (or \ if you really want to shackle yourself to Windows); not . So you have to do this, vocab:io/encodings/8-bit/data.txt NOT this vocab:io.encodings.8-bit/data.txt The resource: prefix still works and it has its own use-cases, but I've updated most usages of it in the repo to use vocab: instead.
