"I would like 'require' to search for the compiled file first, and load it if it's found. Xerox Lisp has a 'require' that doesn't bother about compiled files. This makes it almost necessary to use the InterLISP function 'FILESLOAD' and that will make programs less portable." You must be using Lyric. In Medley 'require' behaves more like IL:FILESLOAD. It searches the connected directory and directories named on IL:DIRECTORIES, first for compiled files then for source files. Doug
