Hm, I do think that other development environments have better solutions for dependencies at least. Common Lisp and Scheme are quite an exception in that their dependencies are usually not easily installable and upgradable via distribution's package management systems, and it's problematic to keep around several incompatible versions of libraries along each other (even the SO lib system has a simple solution here using version suffixes for libraries). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weblocks" group.
