I'm guessing fsf is a module and wdiff is a directory?? Or is > the whole thing supposed to be a module name?

Actually, both the former and the latter are true as fsf/wdiff is indeed a module identifier. I for one always import third-party libraries to a module named "External/ProductName". You might want to broaden your understanding of the "module" term. A module really is anything that could be specified as an argument on the right-hand side of a Checkout command - that includes deeper level directories in your repository as well as virtual modules and even individual files (though you couldn't use the latter two as Import targets). Thus, valid Import targets are "physical, directory-type module" identifiers - not just the "root-level module" identifiers you have probably been thinking about so far. Hope this helps. -- Oliver ---- ------------------ JID: ogiesen at jabber.org ICQ: 18777742 (http://wwp.icq.com/18777742)
