Thanks for the fix(es). [declare -stdlib] works again for me. Unlike specified in the help, -lib now searches both, relative to the patch _and_ standard paths, while -stdlib only searches standard paths and is in accordance to the documentation. Is that intended? The immediate effect of [declare] is a great advancement. Thanks for working on that! [declare] used to add a line to the beginning of the patch file, like: #X declare -stdlib zexy; I assumed this was added so that on next load of the patch it takes effect before the rest of the patch was loaded. Now that [declare] has immediate effect, is that line still necessary? It seems it is (when removing it, the loading doesn't happen anymore), but why? I'm asking because when using [declare] in abstractions, those lines "pollute" the parent patch. Even without a [declare] object in the patch, such lines have an effect on loading, so you end up with a parent patch that secretly loads stuff without the user noticing. Roman
