### Shared modules
All PCjs machines rely on shared modules that are normally stored in [/shared/lib](/shared/lib/). However, until
ALL the machines have been converted to use ES6 classes, shared code must now exist in two flavors:
[/shared/lib](/shared/lib/) and [/shared/es6](/shared/es6/).
Once all the other machines have been converted to use ES6 classes, the shared ES6 code will be folded back into
[/shared/lib](/shared/lib/), and the temporary ES6 folder will go away. Obviously, there is incentive for me to do
this sooner rather than later, since in the interim, I must make any changes to shared code in both places.
There's also a less obvious problem: if you load a web page that attempts to load two or more PCjs machines, one of
which uses [/shared/lib](/shared/lib/) and another of which uses [/shared/es6](/shared/es6/), at least one of them will
fail to start, because the two sets of shared code cannot coexist. Well, they *could* have coexisted if I had been
willing to change the names of all the shared global objects (like **Component**), but I wasn't.
### *import* and *export*
With regard to *import* and *export* statements, the main reason I use them is to inform my development environment
