I agree with you that it would be good for theory files to support<br>
pulling in interpretations from files. How about the following syntax:<br>
<br>
interpret-file: "<a href="http://file.int" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">file.int</a>"<br>
<br>
inside a theory block? It probably makes sense to allow multiple of<br>
these, just like multiple<br>
<br>
interpret: type/const "X" as "Y"<br>
<br>
lines are allowed, but raise an error if the same symbol is<br>
interpreted in multiple ways.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Joe<br>
