I agree with Bart here in some respects. How easy is it to package up modules separately in such a way that they could be built and installed without needing to be unpacked over the zsh source and compiled with it. Ideally, we would have a set of include files which was all anyone needed to build a separate zsh module. Does anyone remember what happened to the perl module someone posted quite a while back? I was going to moan about the name (pcre) because it isn't obvious what it stands for but as it is the name of the library it uses, I suppose I'll have to put up with it. Oliver
