Hi Paul!
I don't know why you don't use the standard module definition and
import/export interface, but if you do want to play modules with
the introspection functions, here's a hint for you:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(define (export-all-from-module! module-name)
(let ((mod (resolve-module module-name)))
(module-for-each (lambda (s m)
(module-add! (current-module) s m)) mod))))
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This function can be used to export all symbols from a specified
module-name. You may modify it for your case.
Best regards.
