Responding to the following:

"If the Mac has had an equivalent to shared libraries, then why are Mac
programs so large? Most Amiga programs are under 50K"

I didn't say it had the equivolent, not at all. Resources follow this
same philosophy, but they're not in that stage yet (nor are shared
libraries, however). In the future, perhaps resources can be stated as
being global and shared among applications (including CODE resources).
I get the impression that the NeXT has this equivolent though...
