* adrien
wishes there were one true regular expression syntax
<lluvia>
me too
<lluvia>
I'd like to use the standard library only
<adrien>
Str is good then
<adrien>
it has some limitations but it should be ok here
brendan has joined #ocaml
<lluvia>
but your function don't cover for example float argument, true?
<lluvia>
that splits --float and 4.3
<adrien>
my example splits according to whitespace
<adrien>
maybe shouldn't even try to split according to \\t
<lluvia>
and another question, which are the minimal packages that need someone to run a purely ocaml program using the standard library? maybe they only need some less weight than "ocaml"
Axsuul has joined #ocaml
<adrien>
it's going to depend on your distribution
<adrien>
I think ocaml with the stdlib is somewhere between 80 and 160MB unpacked, I *think*
<lluvia>
yes, I think so
<lluvia>
but I think somebo
<lluvia>
sorry
<lluvia>
but I think is too much for no ocaml users think it is ok
<adrien>
140MB
<adrien>
well, it includes lots of tools
<hcarty>
lluvia: Those extras aren't required for native code binaries, only if you want to compile OCaml code
<hcarty>
OCaml compiled to bytecode may require a bit more (ocamlrun and ...?)
<lluvia>
hcarty: do you know packages than can run binaries and don't contain compilers and other stuff?
<hcarty>
lluvia: You don't need any packages, from what I know, unless the compiled binary uses external libraries
<adrien>
well, if you compile to bytecode with -custom, you won't have to redistribute ocamlrun
<adrien>
BUT
<adrien>
do NOT strip such files
<hcarty>
thelema: On a related note - is it possible to avoid the Batteries-based binaries dependency on Camomile's data files by avoiding certain Bat* modules?
<hcarty>
adrien: Ah, right - thanks
<lluvia>
I want to make a .deb of binaries and i have to decide which dependencies to select
<adrien>
at runtime? chances are there are none
