Generating a minimal image
Thursday, December 7, 2006
I played around with bootstrap and the module system today, and got
Factor to generate a 600kb factor.image
. The image does not include
the compiler and UI, however it does display a listener, and has all the
math and collections words in it. If there is any interest in this, I
will clean this facility up and make it easier to use. Personally I
don’t have much interest in making images small. I think the current
size of around 6mb is fine, considering it includes full documentation
and developer tools.
