[Gambas-user] gambas programming distribution

[David Villalobos Cambronero]

Hi...

As some of you said, I think we should add all (or almost all) the components and its requeriments. I will add Quanta (HTML editor). Some gambas's reports are created in HTML format and some other components use HTML too, so, I think a HTML editor will be usefull

In the 'chapter' of why... A gambas-programming distro you mention...
 Just as 
a suggestion/thought experiment: go 'all the way': jetisson all but
 that 
which is needed to program gambas(2)... That would probably result in a
 small 
footprint. With a little luck small enough to fit on an USB
 stick/live-like 
system. Everything you put on your distro will require attention and 
maintenance... If you want to focus upon gambas, i'd respectfully
 suggest 
(but no more than suggest..) you indeed do so ;-)

kind regards,

Peter
