Okay, this is anoying.   Does any one know of a API or contruct to execute Transcript at "complile time"  (since in a intrepretative lnaguage there is really no such animal).  In traditional TILs there a keywords such as IMMEDIATE, .IF .ELSE, .THEN, COMPILE and [COMPILE].  Since I believe Transcript is a TIL these constructs should exist.  I am wold like to use such constructs to create a "include" that would operate using a default LIBRARY PATH or possibly even create a "plugin" that would have a XML based project file.  Any suggestions?

I have already created a "handler" to force parameters (aka make them manadatory) it is called manatory.  It is raw but functional.  I am also working on a dialog the  generates a error message with the call stack detail should anyone find it useful.
