Move I/O libraries #37

Closed waywardmonkeys closed 8 years ago

waywardmonkeys commented 8 years ago

Since we don't have the backward compatibility concerns, should we make the jump from having separate libraries for standard-io, format, print, and format-out and merge them into a single io library and update everything to use reflect that.

That'll bring us closer to Open Dylan compatibility as well.

@dram What do you think?

I like this idea. As IO is commonly needed, merging them into a single library will speed up Mindy startup time a bit.

Also compatibility with Open Dylan is really important, so that resources can be shared, e.g. docs, test suites.
