Hi Felix:

I mean if I do not import anything (I guess the compiler knows that) why is 
that hard to spot lets say (vecctorrss-ref ...) that is nowhere defined?

I have really no clue about compiler internals but when giving the compiler 
option 'check for imports' it should at least be possible that the compiler 
gives me a line number or the function where the problem occurs.

But (I will study Will F. his reply though): Can I use Chicken in interpreted 
mode (as I would do it under Bigloo) because this one should give me the line 
number of the problem. Something like this:

==
;; script.scm
(system 'csc foo.scm')
(system './foo')
==

csc -i script.scm

Thanks, Siegfried
