Re: [Mathlib-develop] rehashing

[Stefan M. <st...@he...>]

Hi Bob,

I just added support for rehashing of m-files:
- added a new function rehash.java which can be called at any time
- added a method to the interpreter which will call rehashing after each
   execution of a call to the interpreter

Please check out the latest files from CVS and send feedback to me.

Happy new year,
   Stefan.
