Why don't you distribute a binary then ? If I'm a user I don't want to install ocaml on my system just to =20 compile your project. Also, non technical users don't use the command =20= line. If it is an application the best thing to do is to distribute it in =20 a .app bundle (in which you can include dynamic libraries, altough in =20= that case, given the dependencies I'd simply statically link against =20 extlib) Best, Daniel
