Re: require-extension and require-library

Hi Evan,

I suppose that makes sense, thank you! This does lead to something else that’s 
fuzzy on my mind; the exact role of import.scm files, which I don’t believe is 
mentioned outright in the documentation? I can guess that it has to do with 
providing import libraries, but I can’t be completely sure.

In general, this lack of specificity and consistency when it comes to how 
CHICKEN deals with files and modules in the smaller scale is something that’s 
keeping me from being truly productive with the environment; I just can’t come 
up with a flexible way to organize my projects that can adapt to my needs at 
any given point. It’s hard to me to suggest an alternative, since I’m having 
trouble seeing the full picture! But what I can say is that the manual could 
do a better job at presenting this information, since I’m seeing some concepts 
that are never directly addressed, just sprinked across multiple sections.

For now, I’ll look into csm, since it looks like a straightforward tool, and 
use csi more sparingly.
