Greetings,

It seems to me from looking at many repositories (libraries
and applications) that use Ikarus/R6RS that people are using
the ".sls" extension almost exclusively for their libraries.

Dropping the other extensions simplifies the resolution code
a bit, but more importantly, it simplifies the explanation of
how libraries are mapped to file names by removing one whole
dimension contributing to the potential mappings (the others
being the value of IKARUS_LIBRARY_PATH, the target directory
of where ikarus is installed, the ".ikarus" suffix, and the
"/main.*" thing that we are yet to resolve).

Are there any good arguments for keeping ".ss" and ".scm"
for library file names?

Aziz,,,
