I'm used to doing incremental development in Common Lisp using emacs. When I do, I often write a new function definition and use an Emacs command to add that function to the current context.
How do I do the equivalent in ergo? Ergo's C-c C-r seems to use normal Ergo load semantics, so if I load a new rule definition into main, I get that rule definition in main, but all of main's previous contents are wiped out. I thought that flora-add-region-to-module might do what I want, because of the name, but I just tested it, and it had the same semantics: when I added a new rule to main, it clobbered all of the previous contents of main.
Is there a way to do what I want in Ergo-mode?

ah, yes. I just noticed that ergo.el has a mistake and loads instead of adding. Will take a look at the ergo mode in emacs.
