I suggested a while ago that Guile should have `load-from-port' (and maybe `eval-from-port', which would work like `load-from-port' but return the value of the last expression). I think I even sent patches. Howevr, I think those were the days when Jim was too hosed for Guile. Is this feature considered a good thing? I feel bad trying to slip more stuff in for 1.3, given how Jim is bravely racing down his pre-1.3 TODO list, but the patches are really trivial and can potentially even simplify the source by factoring out the common code in `load' and `eval-string'. I can resend the patch if this is considered useful. I think the patch is too small to need papers, but I can lean on the lawyers even more if that's not Jim's judgement. - Maciej
