Hi Hans (and others), I've been playing with the linuxtex.zip today, and I've noticed some things that may or may not be interesting to you: * it would be better to use tar.bz2 archives (instead of zip). The archive would be quite a bit smaller, and the file permissions would remain unaltered (so that the exes are actually executable after extraction). * the binaries can be stripped to gain some 1.6 megabytes of compressed size (4 mb uncompressed): 51 files, 3091342 bytes uncompressed, 1473221 bytes compressed vs. 51 files, 7230683 bytes uncompressed, 3068044 bytes compressed * cm-super is still included, but should be obsolete now thanks to latin-modern, right? * likewise for the cs/pl/vnr metrics. * perhaps this is even true for the CM pfb files? * the executables that are included are a bit old (pdfetex 1.21a, mpost 0.641). * And of course the 64bit version has no executables at all. Does it make sense for me to (attempt to) clean this up, or would my changes get lost soon anyway? Perhaps me or someone else can even start maintaining these files for you (using a project on FP's SVN server)? Taco
