Sorry for the delayed reply!
I now tried to make some steps for scm-files/ly:load/autocompile.

Though, as far as I can tell ly:load doesn't work with relative pathes.

I'm attempting to code an extension to plain LilyPond. It needs a huge
amount of scheme-coding.
And ofcourse I will not know where the end-user may store it (once it
is finished)

Therefore ly:load is unusable.
Thus debugging such huge code is a pain, it drains energy and motivation.

Ok, I can use it for private coding, though that's not the goal.

Cheers,
