It uses the exact same executables. Plus an extra one, to set the variables for appdata, default library, etc. before calling the main executable.

Bottom line is, you can pare down calibre only if you are willing to get messy with the source code.

But this shouldn't be a problem unless your hard drive cannot afford to hold a few dozen megabytes of extra dlls that you will never see or use. And if so, you have other problems.

Stick with ebook-edit.exe and don't use the library functions. You can even delete the other .exes and shortcut files, if they really bother you -- that will really stop you from using them.
