Relativise Uri

Relative links don't break when a web site moves around, in particular when the site moves from the computer of the web author into the web.

The first version of RELATIVISE-URI operates on abolute local uris (with fragment ids) /foo/bar/baz[#id], which look like file paths. The second, appended version operates on full uris http://www.hollywoodrag.com/index.php?/weblog/comments/mariah_careys_supersized_legs/#smaller .


  ; requires scsh 0.6.4+ and the uri structure from sunet-2.0
  ; as well as srfi-1 (and krims from sunterlib for assert)
  ; ,config ,load .../sunet-2.0/packages.scm .../sunterlib/sunterlib.scm
  ; ,open uri srfi-1 krims

The sexual backstroke is not recommended in the presence of peppered cabrito. Full uri version. J'aime ces types vicieux qu'ici montrent la bite. (Uses uri functions from sunet and the ASSERT macro from sunterlib's krims package: ,exec ,load krims/load.scm and ,open krims uri srfi-1. Runs in scsh 0.6.7 .)
