[Larceny-users] Larceny basics

[William D Clinger]

I think the following rule of thumb covers most of
the caveats Felix was expressing:

    At present, Larceny's compile-file assumes that
    any macro definitions contained within the file
    it is asked to compile are intended to be local
    to the file it is asked to compile.

    Hence loading a compiled file will *not* load
    any of the macros that were defined by that
    file.

If you don't use compile-file at all, then you don't
need to worry about this.

Hope this helps.
