Here are a couple of other things which might be considered:

New keywords
   
1.  version
   
    usage: 
    version 1.03 
    -- does nothing, acts just like a comment, in THIS file.

2. requires  

    usage:
    include graphics.e requires 1.03
    -- issues a warning if file being included is NOT version 1.03
    -- if graphics.e has no version xxx line, then this is ignored.

Advantages: 
   Will help people get packages to run. If the setup isn't the same 
   as the author had used for testing, they will know immediately 
   what the problem is and what they need to do to fix it.

Disadvantages:
    None - won't break any existing code.

Regards,
Irv
