Re: r6rs libraries, round three

[Julian Graham]

Hi all,

Besides version, another thing that would be very useful to have
"native" Guile support for is being able to export bindings with names
other than the ones given to them within the module -- that is, to be
able to "rename" variables exported as part of the module's public
interface in `define-module', similar to what the `#:select' keyword
allows you to do for imported bindings.

In fact, it could even work the same the way: a given element in the
list passed with the `#:export' keyword could be either a symbol or a
pair in which the car is the module-local name and the cdr is the name
to use in the module's public interface.

What do people think?


Regards,
Julian
