Re: Defining a library in one file

I just want to archive this here.  Here's an example of a library that can
be compiled today in OD with just a LID file and one Dylan source file.
 (The used libraries must already have been compiled, due to a bug.)

--------onefile.lid-------
Library: onefile
Files: onefile

--------onefile.dylan--------
Module: onefile

define library onefile
  use common-dylan;
  use io;
end library;

define module onefile
  use common-dylan, exclude: { format-to-string };
  use format-out;
end module;

define function main (name :: <string>, arguments :: <vector>)
  format-out("Hello, world!\n");
  exit-application(0);
end function main;

main(application-name(), application-arguments());
