Reorganizing biglibs (ACIDLIBS/DEFLIBS) in AmiBlitz V3.9

[Honitos]

As I am still working on AmiBlitz 3.9 I thought about separating the blitzlibs into some more collection files (biglibs).



At the moment we have

• ACIDLIBS: contains mostly libs from the creator of BlitzBasic itself
• DEFLIBS: a bunch of all other libs from mostly third party programmers

In order to get AB3 runnable on a real (not highest end) amiga again and therefore to save memory, I want to split the biglibs into one or two more libs like:

• BaseLibs: absolutely important commands/functions e.g. arrays
• OsLibs: all fd-converted os-functions like "Delay_" (wrapper commands for functions of os libraries)
• chipsetLibs: all libs that makes use of classic chipset (mostly sound and graphics)
• utilLibs: libs that do not fit into one of the other categories

By loading all of these biglibs, the behaviour would be the same as it is at the moment. By disabling one or more of these biglibs, you could save a huge amount of memory, if you never use OSlibs or chipset related functions.



Any opinions ?


I already removed all os-function libs from DEFLIBS to a new collection file called OSLIBS. So I could save about 500kb of libs I NEVER use.


P.S. of course I would update AB3LibsManager to handle these files.
