Re: cml doesn't load ?

Hi,

OK I major reason for my confusion is that the sources file is set up  
for compilation where as I'm trying to do everything from the command  
line.  So :

- CM.make "sources.cm";
[autoloading]
...
[New bindings added.]
val it = true : bool
- open CalcTest;
- doit();

WORKS !

So the the calc eXene example works.  add doesn't though, seems to be  
having a problem with bitmap definitions of some sort.

However I still have CM confusion

 From the CM manual:

Group (foo-lib.cm)
is
set-util.sml
map-util.sml
$/basis.cm

exports from the Standard Basis Library are available when compiling  
these ML source files

since the export list has been left blank, the only (implicitly  
specified) exports of this component are the top-level definitions in  
its ML source files

Maybe my interpretation is not strict enough.  Does "ML source files"  
mean ONLY .sml files ?

So if I add

   $cml/cml.cm

to the above example wouldn't cml.cm's exports be available ? The  
answer is no.  As you point out everything works just fine when you add

   structure CML

to the group definition.

This gets back to my earlier question about confusion between  
libraries and groups.  Why does the group keyword even exist ? I just  
can't figure out when I would ever need it since it seems
