     The program :
main() {

}
compiles to something like 30 or 40k!  What gives.  If you then use just 
a couple library functions your code size goes up to around 50 or 60k.  
Am I setting the program up wrong or what?  Do the programs really need 
that huge "library chunk" of data to run?  I can put up with the slow 
compile time, but I make up a lot of little apps, and it just seems that 
they're taking up a heck of a lot more disk space then they need be.  
Just wondering... Please mail replies to lafitte AT utdallas DOT edu
