Support for <span class="monospaced">.cm</span> files as input: The <a href="MLBasis">ML Basis system</a> provides much better infrastructure for "programming in the very large" than the (very) limited support for CM.  The <span class="monospaced">cm2mlb</span> tool (available in the source distribution) can be used to convert CM projects to MLB projects, preserving the CM scoping of module identifiers.
