I think if in emacs mode you have 2 windows opened and enter the C-x C-
Ok, this is quite reasonable. At the same time, I don't understand how do
you see installation process.
Suppose user doesn't have any config.
cabal install yi
cabal install yi-pango
How will Yi select UI for him, since it's not hardcoded in configuration
file yet?

Alternatively, you could have Yi just be a library which front-end's link to.
then, only the front-ends have binaries. no linking issues, no plugins, far
simpler dependency checks, easier for people unrelated to the project to write
new front ends..

I'm not sure I understand your second point.
Regarding the fir
Why not just let the frontends link with the core statically?
After all re-configuration triggers a re-link.

Hello guys,
Recently I've been thinking on splitting Yi into core package and UIs.
Here are some of my thoughts:
Currently Yi core slightly depends on frontends.
This dependence can be easily removed(fix me if I'm wrong). However, it'll
