Going to tackle it starting this week because it's Frontend Month! This one will have (at least) three parts:

  1. Design an external library format. (#30)
  2. Get the existing frontend to pull all of its symbols out of an external library, instead of hard-coding them into the compiler. (#31)
  3. Implement the syntax/semantics of library imports, as in the example code, so that the frontend knows nothing about primitive functions or library functions except what is imported. (This)

Yay for frontend month! I'll try to be part of this push as much as possible.
