Hi. Recently, new func `try-require' is added into wm.defaults:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; try to trequire a script, but don't
;; err if failed
(define (try-require sym)
(condition-case nil
(require sym)
(error nil)))
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. I don't think it makes sense. If 'require' fails,
then the code that follows doesn't work, with error
"(void-value symbol-foo-bar)". But they wonder why it is not
defined, since they assume it's loaded. So, what has to be detected is
that require failed.
But it's not written that it returns a signal at failure. I'll do that.
2. Even if it's to be adopted, this shouldn't be in Sawfish, but in
librep.
What do you think?
