Good question.

I like to design "little" classes and as such I have some 140 public
classes in my include directory.  My experiments with the upchuck
script discussed earlier on this list never worked out for me -- it
could not handle transitive dependencies very well.  E.g. class Graphs
--includes--> Graph --includes-> ArrayList --includes --> List
--includes--> Functions --includes--> Interpolator --> FloatFunction
and so on.

Currently I just cut and paste the classes I need into each script,
since then you don't have to determine the proper order.

Yeah for code reuse.
