Often I see apps which are dependent on this .so file or that. I don't know=
=20
how apps can be written that depend on libraries that are not linked into t=
he=20
executable. So far I have been linking all needed libraries into the=20
executable.

A .so is a collection of what? An .a is a collection of .o-s, right? What i=
s=20
a .la? I am so very confused.

I don't know what keywords to search for on Google. Which is why I ask here=
=2E=20
If it is a detailed subject please give me keywords so I can search and fin=
d=20
on my own.

Thanks for your help.
