In short, dlls will solve the problem, let's work on that instead of
shuffling around code.
How exactly do they solve the problem? An exe plus a DLL version of the
library will usually be larger than just a statically linked exe.
The DLL is loaded into memory once. With static linking, it's loaded
every time you run an exe.
I thought we were talking about distribution sizes, not memory use. But
anyway, DLL's won't do a lot as long as people don't have a whole bunch
of D programs installed.
