>From the Emacs lisp manual:
     If loading the file succeeds but does not provide FEATURE,
     `require' signals an error, `Required feature FEATURE was not
     provided'.

This part is a bit obscure. So, it does what I want (loading the file)
but signals an error? I don't get it.

So is it bad practice to use the file name as a feature like
"(require 'filename)"?
