Well, giving the fact that Tcl/Tk apps are becoming more and more common, it would be bad not to have shared libs... -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 8192 May 7 1995 /usr/local/bin/wish* Having libtcl and libtk static would make the executable to more than 400k... Something like Tk-Perl would also take a big hit (it is already too slow).
