Add relative path in import.ck about lick HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks for the suggestion, @01010101!

When I run stuff with LiCK I'm running from the lick source directory and

$ chuck --loop &

in one terminal window and

$ chuck + import.ck
$ chuck + examples/foo.ck

in another. What is your use case, and how might this help?

Hi.
I also run chuck this way (tmux or screen window) but was thinking it would be useful to have some kind of utils or libs (incl. lick) in an external folder.
This way I can refer to some of them from any working directory so I don't have to copy/duplicate those files nor have everything I'm working on at the same place, or even navigate directories.
It just seemed more natural to me to do imports this way.

But, indeed, I can do the opposite and run chuck from that lib/utils folder, then manage paths within my ck files.

from lick.

Thanks, let's talk that through. You have

lick/import.ck
lick/lick/...
working/foo.ck

and you'd like to do

$ pwd
working

$ chuck --loop &
$ chuck + foo.ck

foo.ck:

Machine.add("../lick/import.ck");
<<<"ok">>>;

or perhaps

$ chuck --loop &
$ chuck + ../lick/import.ck foo.ck

?

from lick.

Yeah, that's the idea
