Hi Mihai,

Just be clear, I would never expect a single EXE in most cases and I am a
big fan of satellite DLLs for "other" languages (although I always build
English into my main application as a default). I would just like to
minimize the number of DLLs that I use and not have very small specific DLLs
in cases where that functionality could easily be linked in statically. I
think if more than one application in your suite is going to call on the
same functionality then externally hosting it makes sense so they can share
it, but when it is just a couple of dialogs or a few functions it seems like
a waste to me.

there is absolutely no reason to shun XCOPY == install.

How is this related to DLLs, or single EXE?
copy /b/v * <targetFolder>
can copy as many files as you want, dlls or not.

And xcopy is even more powerfull, can deal will deep folder
structures, ACL, symbolic links, restartable mode for nework
files, and what not.

So how is xcopy == install implies in any way single exe?
