Correct. > So, the reason of having some functionality implemented using a > plugin instead of having it built into "core" is to make the function > optional, am I wrong? You are indeed wrong. The reason is to save space. The larger the core gets, the less memory is available - this is especially important on the Archos targets which are quite limited. This functionality is implemented using plugins simply because it's possible to do. I don't think you should put any code into the core for this reason, but separating the plugins used by the system from the regular plugins (into a separate category) might be useful. -- Jonas Häggqvist rasher(at)rasher(dot)dk
