HELP POPAUTOLIST John Williams, May 1990 The global variable POPAUTOLIST contains a list of directory names used by the POP11 autoloading mechanism. POPAUTOLIST should not be confused with *POPUSESLIST, which is a list of directories used by the commands *LIB, *USES, and *SHOWLIB (for loading libraries explicitly). See HELP * POPUSESLIST. Each item in POPAUTOLIST must be of one of the following types: a string: this is taken to be a directory name a list: this should be of the same format as POPAUTOLIST and will be scanned left to right a procedure: this is used by *SYSLIBCOMPILE to find a file in a manner determined by the user an identifier: its idval should be a string, procedure, or list in the format of POPAUTOLIST The default value of POPAUTOLIST is something like: ['$poplocalauto/' '$popautolib/' '$popvedlib/' '$popvedlib/term/' '$usepop/pop/lib/database/' ] Users may add directory names to this list, in order to have their own procedures autoloaded. See HELP * INITIAL. Autoloading is explained in more detail in HELP * AUTOLOAD. The POP11 library facilities are described in REF * LIBRARY. --- C.all/help/popautolist --- Copyright University of Sussex 1991. All rights reserved. ----------
