<ciaranm> i'm just idly contemplating adding in nohelp, nosyntax, noftplugin etc to vim-core...
<ciaranm> or maybe a USE="livecd" which turns 'em off
<wolf31o2> ciaranm: USE=livecd would be SWEET
* wolf31o2 likes space savings

We could nuke all the syntax and ft* files... But it's also easy enough to keep a small number around to cover things that'll be edited from a livecd environment. I'm thinking we:
* nuke all of compiler/, doc/, ftplugin/, indent/, macros/, print/, tools/, tutor/
* keep colors/default.vim, plugin/*, syntax/{conf,crontab,fstab,inittab,resolv,sshdconfig}.vim and drop the rest of colors/ and syntax/
* maybe do some clever things with filetype.vim. Maybe not, since we don't really have to...

Anything else that should be kept?

I'll jump on this this weekend and see how it does.  I guess I'll also have to comment out all the deleting of vim stuff (like syntax) that I'm doing in my ilvecd-stage2... ;p

Building a livecd with this now... I'll let you know how it looks... =]

Works great... at least it seems to...
Comment 6 Ciaran McCreesh 2004-10-01 08:59:50 UTC
Applied.
