Cool beans! Now I just built it on my other XP machine "--with-system- malloc" (although maybe I should've rebooted with a liveCD and tried DOSEMU ... bah, next time maybe) with GCC 4.4.0, BinUtils 2.19, DJGPP 2.04 beta, and I used -Os -mtune=3Di686. It's got everything (except *.o and redundant .EXEs): binaries, sources, docs, changelogs (16 MB!), .tex / .pdf, "etc", etc. ;-) In other words, 32 MB packed with "7za a -mx5" (medium compression) resulting in 170 MB unpacked (or more on FAT w/ big clusters, ugh). Brief tests show it works fine on Vista, too. (I haven't used it too much lately, always forget, but when you need "align-regexp", it's very very useful. And gomoku still kicks my rump. Doctor is fairly braindead, though. I also discovered that not all GNU Emacs ports have such a pretty colorful tetris! Ah, dumb terminals, gotta hate 'em.) "Your file has been saved and can now be downloaded 10 times. It will be deleted after 90 days without download.

For laughs, I locally tried stripping all the junk out (extra .elc, docs, changelogs, parts of etc, sources) and UPXing the .EXEs. Even then, the smallest I get with "7za a -mx5" is 14 MB. Now looking at it, I see even more fluff that isn't needed (.png, NEWS.*, gnus ... which only you probably understand how to get working, a bunch of README files, ...). In other words, 60 MB installed, and even then, I'm not entirely sure I didn't strip something that looked unimportant but might be (rarely) needed. So, in theory, if I (or somebody) was going to strip / split up everything into separate packages, it'd need testing to make sure it didn't break anything. Also need to test if building on LFN (or SFN) affects the other. And I still say Gzip sources and/or binary could be included, it's very small compared to what it saves (auto-compression-mode), and that's only if it needs "gzip -9" to repack after unpacking (I forget, does it??). It should probably be made to only unpack a temporary copy (or to temporary dir). Otherwise, just use minigzip found in official zlib-1.2.3/contrib/ since it's equally easy to build and works. (I guess the Allegro Common Lisp inflate.cl is beyond anybody these days. Oh well, I still like that idea too, but it does need converting to eLisp *and* a .gz wrapper handler.) P.P.S. Still no cp853 support, but since I'm literally 100% positively the only person in the entire freakin' world who cares, I guess it's no biggie. :-))
