Ok, I ran some tests, and I've come to a few conclusions.
First of all, Yikes!
I took the ScConfig data and binary serialized it, and it still comes to 421K,
so the simple answer aint' the good one.
I'm really commited to providing a universal coloring system, with languge
templates already setup, so I'm not going to abandon this, but now I may
rethink how the configuration data is stored/edited.
When I bzip'd the binary it came out to 99k, which tells me that there is far
too much redundancy in the content itself. It's storing every copy of the style
name strings and whatnot, so I think that if I work on some internal
abstraction I should be able to drop the requirements down quite a bit. The
impact of that is that it will have to load the XML and turn it into an
internal format to work, but we shouldn't lose and functionality.
That, and I think I'll toss in some quick and dirty compression for large text
resources (like language samples).
Anyway, this all means that the config stuff is a bit farther off than I'd
hoped, but I'll concentrate on getting the other stuff in right away
(find/replace,etc) and put out a new build asap, and then I'll refocus on the
config stuff, and integrate it into the same assembly as the rest of the stuff.
That way, eventually, the footprint for ScintillaNET should be the
SciLexer.dll[275k] and the ScintillaNET.dll[250k~300k] for a total of 550ish K.
The user's custom color choices will get saved in their profile directory, and
should be less than 10k of user-editable XML.
