I was bored one day and decided to write a dynamic link library interface
for DJGPP programs, and that is where the whole function sizes question
came from. Anyway, although its the most unportable thing in the world and
has extreme limitations, it works. But it's considerably difficult to
write a function WITHOUT STRING LITERALS! Is there any conceivable way to
compose an independent function memory snapshot which would include
accurate references to string literals? And on the darker side of the
subject, although I know a limited scope of it, every program and function
I've ever wrote in assembler has generated some odd error, so I'm staying
away from it until I can get a reliable book, so leave that area unused
and stick with answers dealing with it in C. Thanks in advance.
