[S5-discuss] One file

Personally, I'd love to see an s5 project being one file that a
browser could open and work. (I can imagine an "s5 compiler" that
makes one file out of an existing easy-to-work-with multi-file
project.) Of course, the big problem here is images; Mozilla lets you
embed images as code, but IE doesn't (unless they're XBMs). IE
supports MHTs but Firefox doesn't (installing an extension to make
them work doesn't count). I'd love to build a single file that was
both an MHT and an HTML file that Firefox could read but, well, I
can't. It would make it so much easier to email or move presentations
around, though. After devoting lots of thought to this I can't think
of a way of doing it (that doesn't involve all the images being
black-and-white in IE), but someone else might have some ideas.
