Message-ID: <4A455426.4030503@peoplepc.com> (raw)
Been using Google all day to no avail. I think it is pretty straight
forward question.
Can you use compressed Lisp code? Will it evaluate, compile and evaluate?
The reason I ask is due to looking at the Emacs directory. The Lisp code
directory sure does eat up a lot of space. So, it came to mind, "why not
compress each of those buggers and let the interpreter use them from the
archives?"
Will Emacs allow this? Further is it even doable beyond Emacs?
This may not be exactly the best place for me to ask, understood. I am
trying to keep it related to Emacs on a general usage level. If we can
use compressed libraries, wouldn't it be worth knowing? ;-)
