So all the games in aisleriot are going to share those resources between themselves, and you are only saving a tiny bit of disk space by not using it instead of some hypothetical standalone gnome-freecell. Which is only distributed as part of aisleriot, BTW, since no sane developer would do it any other way.
I'm definitely taking that under consideration Stevo, I'll just apt-get and it will tell me how many Mbs it will add - I've got rid of a lot of them so far, so I guess I could add some back .... I wonder if I can set up Aisle-Riot so that it will open up with Freecell instead of Solitaire? - just a hypothetical thot I just had.... I'll have to read their manual to see if that's possible!
