Read the DJGPP FAQ List, section 8.15. The latest version is available at: ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2/faq202b.zip In short, you can use the '-s' switch to strip the executable of debugging information, or define empty versions of some of the DJGPP startup functions. (__crt0_glob_function, __crt0_load_environment_file, and _crt0_setup_arguments) You can also use the DJP executable packer to compress DJGPP executables. -- John M.
