Hi Eli,
Thanks for the reply.

>Did you strip the executable, or does it still include debug info?

I had not stripped the executable. Now, I have compiled using the -s
option, and my exe size is much reduced. But the program still crashes.

The only thing I can think of is that I am compiling my program on XP,
and then later running it on a DOS environment. I did this only out of
convenience -
my XP had everything to compile and link TV. I guess I will have to
install TV on a pure DOS machine.

Can it be that slightly different .exe formats expected by DOS and
WinXP are the cause of the problem?


Thanks,
Ahmad
