Hmmm. Not for me. I guess this is another instance of the issue that the OP 
raised. Not sure what to try next to make it work. FWIW one reason I think 
auto-indentation is critical for newbies is that my best advice to beginning 
Lisp students is "auto-indent it to see where the structure isn't what you 
thought it was." That reveals a large percentage of problems. Also I rely on it 
myself for all of my coding.

I've just fiddled with the Commando options a bit but haven't succeeded in 
getting one file to find another in the same directory via "require" in an ns 
form. I don't doubt that it "does what I want" or that it's "simple" to do for 
you and others, but this is another instance of the problem that the OP and I 
have raised.
