An approach to library organization for block-structured languages is given that avoids corrupting such structuring with the introduction of “modules”, “units”, or “packages”. The scheme involves
retentive block structuring
and the preservation of partially compiled programs as
compiler continuations.
Its chief advantage is language simplicity. Its chief disadvantage is, at the present, its proclivity towards redundant file storage. This can possibly be eliminated by adopting a computational model using a one-level store.
