Really the trick is to get rid of Unwanted constants from assumptions and theorems (since constants that are only present inside proofs are trapped and can never escape to their environment). So Michael's solution of replacing the point-free version of theorems containing Unwanted constants with point-full versions should work just fine, though on an ad-hoc basis. </blockquote><div> I don't think that's what he suggested. Rather it was to provide a proof of the point-free version. I'm about to try saving such a proof in a separate package and then listing that package as a "requires:" to see what happens... </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"> Cheers, Joe <div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"> On Thu, Jan 19, 2012 at 12:19 AM, Ramana Kumar <<a href="mailto:ramana.kumar@gmail.com">ramana.kumar@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > Thinking about this more, I'm not sure it will work completely because the > statement of the theorem will still include Unwanted.id...
