No, ELF is not really a fine format for executables from software development viewpoint. It'd be better for executables to be self- contained, tar-archive-like files that have everything they need inside them. Specification for such stuff would be absolutely much smaller because you won't get to write much of papers out from file concatenation and couple of plaintext files meant for debugging, linking and loading the program. Because I have nothing better to do, I try read rest of your post. Though, due to short attention span in the internet, you should exercise summarizing. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Chromium Discussion mailing list: [email protected] View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-discuss -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
