I use this library to read input from the keyboard, and it is especially
useful for handling cursor movement keys (left, right, page-up,
etc.). I'm sure the same thing could be done in TRPlayer without the
slang library; I just haven't done it yet.

I could link TRPlayer without this library, and I have in the past, but
the executable is 10 to 20K larger when linked this way.

RealPlayer requires this.

This is used to load shared libraries from RealPlayer at run-time. Even
if TRPlayer didn't use this one, the RealPlayer shared libraries still
would.

Good question; someone from RealNetworks will have to answer that one. I
know that you can remove the Help directory and the realplay executable
from the "/usr/lib/RealPlayer7" directory, since TRPlayer only needs the
shared libraries and not the actual RealPlayer binary. The RealPlayer
shared libraries may still be too big, though.
