customize which libraries are loaded and which modules are opened by default #4

Closed agarwal closed 9 years ago

agarwal commented 9 years ago

Although one can always include the desired directives and module open commands in the input file, it might be convenient to pass these as command line options. For example, someone might want to always load core and async and open Core.Std and Async.Std, without having to write this at the top of their files.

I believe this is done in 90a3809fdeb9fb0cf1becbcc8e029eff84b07874

I also added a .merlin file in a commit prior to that one.

Thanks. I merged to master. I'll leave this issue open however, as I think we can get a more general solution too. We should be able to customize for libraries beyond just Core and Async.

Do you always want to load core? It is rather heavy (takes a noticeable time at startup) and is not necessarily needed (considering Oloop is a general library). @agarwal ?

agarwal commented 9 years ago

@Chris00 Now that oloop is much more general, no particular library should be given any special consideration. You can load Core just like anything else.
