i dont think the point is so much size as it is kind of cruft ... it can be made smaller, but in the end, it still needs to be maintained ... we're not just talking doc files, we're also talking the interface which (as someone mentioned) still needs to be ported to imlib2 ... the other idea is that online docs can be updated a lot more dynamically than distributed ... however thats to be expected ... if your only complaint really is having to connect to the internet, thats understandable ... we could package e16 with a snapshot of the docs from the website as they currently exist ... -mike
