This is the general idea - actually, it's for two related reasons: 1. To make it easier to make packages (linux or osx), as we can statically link mzscheme, the binary extensions and scheme modules into the fluxus scratchpad app and release packages which don't require plt scheme. 2. To make it possible to use fluxus to create downloadable games/applications which don't require any dependancies at all - i.e. all libs are static linked in to the scratchpad, which then gets released as a standalone binary. cheers, dave
