#### Allow bootstrap-time integration of the Nimrod executable with the standard library
**Skill Requirements:** Knowledge of file system api's, knowledge of compiler internals and theory.
**Description**:
* Allow the nimrod bootstrap process to integrate the nimrod standard library source code and other associated resources into the nimrod binary, to be used by the nimrod binary when compiling source code. The included library modules should be overridable, either by a switch passed to the nimrod executable, or by placing an actual library file in a pre-determined path.

**Description:**
* Add comments to the compiler internals, documenting the various mechansisms and mechanics the compiler uses to analyze and transform nimrod code to the code of the specified backend.
