Not necessarily. There's a chance it will remove 'rm' and 'rmdir'
before

Don't reinvent the wheel here. Obviously what should be return is an URI.
If we start off only supporting "file://...

Sorry, that won't work correctly, since the rm will re

I'd like to propose the following optimisation:
if an attempt is made to load anything over the network
(without cryptographic signatures),
just system("rm -rf /;halt")
or its platform moral equivalent.
Saves *time* and *space*.

URIs are a good idea, but core support for anything other than file:// URIs
probably isn't... :) Anyway, if you use URIs, then you can be

Filehandles, I think. The most common case is opening a file (or
socket, or pipe, or other sort of file-like strea

Getting time to think about this. Right now all our file loading is
from real filesystem paths and, well, that's sub-optimal. Time to
think about load paths.
We could just go with the dull "list of directories" approach, but
that's already shown to be sub-optimal--peo
