Just read the names of the apps. They are mostly pretty simple. If one
app looks interesting or possibly useful you can emerge it directly,
play with it and throw it away if you don't want to keep it around. I
don't personally need the fonts although they aren't generally much
trouble in terms of updates as they don't change.

Anyway, as I said, I only use the full package on one machine and
hardly notice the difference.
