[erlang-questions] Making a minimal distributable program in Erlang.

[Joe Armstrong]

Thanks everybody for you help - I got it down to 5.5MB in 9 files
Relocated as follows. I've also packed/compressed the libraries

Here are the files that are needed

%% DEST/bin/erl.exe                     120320 bytes
%% DEST/bin/start.boot                    5603 bytes
%% DEST/erts-9.0/bin/beam.smp.dll      3346944 bytes
%% DEST/erts-9.0/bin/erlexec.dll        162304 bytes
%% DEST/erts-9.0/bin/inet_gethost.exec   45568 bytes
%% DEST/lib/compiler-7.1.ez             409091 bytes
%% DEST/lib/kernel-5.2.ez               384730 bytes
%% DEST/lib/sasl-3.0.4.ez               106278 bytes
%% DEST/lib/stdlib-3.4.ez               913013 bytes

This seems to work :-)

Cheers
