That reminds me; I desire an implementation independent library that abstracts out the recording of the "definitional home."
I am afraid this would be quite hard to do: imagine a variable defined in different files for different implementations and features. On the other hand, it you are willing to compromise on implementation independence, you can use slime: I believe they support many implementations (each implementation has its own internal idiosyncratic way to remember where a variable is defined, and they abstract that out into a common interface). -- Sam Steingold (http://sds.podval.org/) on CentOS release 5.5 (Final) X http://thereligionofpeace.com http://www.PetitionOnline.com/tap12009/ http://mideasttruth.com http://openvotingconsortium.org Send $10 for a brochure on how to make money selling brochures.
