Hi Doug,
A. You can distribute the library as a separate stack, which allows
you to update the library in the future without having to build a new
distribution, or
B. You can include the library as a substack within the stand-alone,
which means the library can't get separated from the rest of the app
or be viewed by the user.
If it's a general-purpose library of Transcript handlers, I wouldn't
worry about optimizing a different library for each application.
OTOH, if it's a library of .jpeg images, sounds, or other memory
hogs, I would consider creating an optimized library sans unnecessary
objects.
You may also work the other direction: create a clone of your general
library and add to it resources specific to each standalone you
create.
