HI Lou,

Don't feel bad.  I'm not sure I understand how dependencies work either!
There are a few things you can do like pre and post load scripts in
Monticello that I use.  You should understand how those work. You can
right-click on a package in Monticello and "add required packages" but I'm
not sure how that works.

When I try to load your code I get this:

This package depends on the following classes:
  RotaryDialMorph
You must resolve these dependencies before you will be able to load these
definitions:

That was very helpful for me to find the other repository that was
required.

I don't see your other class but that is because it's not a superclass of
other code.

The best way is to have good documentation in multiple locations so that
people understand the feature is available.

Monticello also has Monticello Configurations which are very useful!  That
allows you to add multiple repositories and package versions into one
package that is easy to load.  I use that to keep track of specific
versions of packages that make an application.  You could commit one of
those into your repository to let people know there is another repository
available you can use to add features.

Maybe someone can help explain how "add required packages" is used or what
it does.

All the best,

Ron
