Hi Adrian, I've tried to do some steps in this direction so here's a little cleaned exerimental image without sound, with less unimplemented calls etc.: http://comtalk.eu/public/pub/pharo/Pharo0.1Core-10248.9.zip FreeType package can be removeable, in fact it is easier to remove that TrueType. -- Pavel On Mon, Mar 16, 2009 at 10:21 PM, Adrian Lienhard <adi@netstyle.ch> wrote:
In quest of modularizing Pharo and reducing its memory footprint, I was wondering whether the following packages should be removed:
- TrueType and related classes in Multilingual-Display (are obsolete since we have FreeType, no?) - Services (does not seem to be used, except by a subclass in Polymorph) - Graphics-External-Ffenestri (why is this in the image??) - Compression (I think, does not need to be in the kernel) - Sound (dito) - Traits-LocalSends and Traits-Requires (are not used) - MorphicExtras (I assume at least some of those could extracted) - ...?
I would put these in a repository so they can be loaded if needed. The extraction of some of these packages likely needs some work, but would be a first step towards a more modular kernel.
What do others think?
Adrian
