Error pointing sitelib to hidden directory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. ypsilon sitelib=~/.r6rs
--------------------------------------------
** ERROR in environment variable 'YPSILON_SITELIB': directory "$HOME/.r6rs" not 
exist

error in load: "sitelib=/home/jonsul/.r6rs" not found
--------------------------------------------
I like having a hidden file in my home to hold my r6rs libraries, but it comes 
with an error when I want to use .r6rs. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.

By the way, love ypsilon! Hope development starts up again.

Although I'm not sure what you mean by "hidden",
in general you should have prefix '--' leading 'sitelib'.
Without /home/foo/.r6rs;

$ ypsilon sitelib=~/.r6rs

error in load: "sitelib=/home/foo/.r6rs" not found

$ ypsilon --sitelib=~/.r6rs
** ERROR in option '--sitelib=~/.r6rs': directory "~/.r6rs" not exist

And my guess is that the message
> ** ERROR in environment variable 'YPSILON_SITELIB': directory "$HOME/.r6rs" 
not exist
seems to show that it does not substitute $HOME with /home/jonsul.
How about just setting YPSILON_SITELIB=/home/jonsul/.r6rs ?

I might have pasted it wrong, but the bug is real cause I get the same error 
with my /etc/environment too. But knowing me I probably screwed it up lol^^

Nope, just tried it. Here's actual input and output:

$ ypsilon --sitelib=~/.r6rs
** ERROR in environment variable 'YPSILON_SITELIB': directory "$HOME/.r6rs" not 
exist

Should of added it to the above, but here's showing that the directory exists 
and is good. Do you think it could be the makeup of the directory? I just have 
a few libraries in it that I wanted to try out:

$ ~/.r6rs
bash: /home/jonsul/.r6rs: is a directory
j####l@Herpie:~$ cd ~/.r6rs
j####l@Herpie:~/.r6rs$ ls
ikarus-sdl  srfi  sweet-macros

I've been playing with different schemes and I actually like ypsilon the best. 
Tried ikarus but the thing isn't near done enough. Plus ypsilon is game 
oriented, which is what I want to use it for. How's mosh in terms of completion?
