If you want to be able to dispatch events from anywhere that would be the global environment. I find your code a little puzzling to be honest, but I think if you would do so...

in your example neither file needs to require the other, because all functions live in the global environment and therefore do not need to exist at the time of being referenced in another function. Sorry. I was unclear. None of the functions exist in the global environment because they are all in p...
