How to run Kotlin script that uses another Kotlin file?

Question

Kotlin Script kotlin-experiment/Play.kts

import experiment.*

println(sum(2, 2))

Kotlin Library kotlin-experiment/Play.kts

package experiment

fun sum(x: Int, y: Int) = x + y

The compile and run command:

kotlinc -script Play.kts

produces an error:

Play.kts:3:9: error: unresolved reference. None of the following candidates is applicable because of receiver type mismatch:
...
println(sum(2, 2))
        ^

Currently, Kotlin script does not support this functionality out of the box.

By using Kscript you get this and other nice features https://github.com/holgerbrandl/kscript
