Jatha: Documentation for non-standard functions

LOAD-FROM-JAR (filename &OPTIONAL jarfile)

LOAD-FROM-JAR will load a LISP file from either the jarfile (or classpath) containing Jatha, or from a specified jar file.

Examples

  (load-from-jar "myfunctions.lisp")     ;; uses getResource() on the current classpath
  (load-from-jar "foo/myfunctions.lisp" "mylisplibrary.jar")  ;; Uses JarFile to read the jar.

Notes

• Files at the top level of a jar file do not have a leading slash. Use "sample.lisp", not "/sample.lisp".
• This should be extended someday to open a stream to read a jar file.
• This should be extended to load objects like icons and images.
