Re: A85: My problem with libraries



I think everyone does not understand libraries very well. If so listen to 
this:

                         LIBRARIES ARE OPTIONAL!!!

Gasp! If you don't want libraries in your program, don't use them!
If you do not program, go do your homework before complaining to everyone.
I don't see what the big deal is really. (and I think that if you have libs 
in your program, you should package them all up into an .85g file... this 
makes things easier for everyone. That's what I do anyway)
