%\usage{require (String_Type feature [,String_Type file]}
%\description
% The \sfun{require} function ensures that a specified "feature" is present.
% If the feature is not present, the \sfun{require} function will attempt to
% load the feature from a file. If called with two arguments, the feature
% will be loaded from the file specified by the second argument. Otherwise,
% the feature will be loaded from a file given by the name of the feature,
% with ".sl" appended.
%
% If after loading the file, if the feature is not present,
% a warning message will be issued.
%\notes
% "feature" is an abstract quantity that is undefined here.
%
% A popular use of the \sfun{require} function is to ensure that a specified
% file has already been loaded. In this case, the feature is the
% filename itself. The advantage of using this mechanism over using
% \ifun{evalfile} is that if the file has already been loaded, \sfun{require}
% will not re-load it. For this to work, the file must indicate that it
% provides the feature via the \sfun{provide} function.
