Automatic compilation requires that the name of the file
be the same as the *last* program module (procedure or
function) in the file. Any procedure or function modules
in front of the last program module should be utility
routines for the last module. Any utility module that can be
expected to be called by other procedures or functions
in other files should be taken out of the file it is in
and placed in a separate file, appropriately named with
the *last* module in the file. All files are placed in
the PATH, and viola! everything works as expected. :-)
Cheers,
David
