- Is the debug option set. The TV library is compiled without debugging,
- but when you have debugging set, all classes (there are quite a few), data
- and your code is given debug info. Considering thatg TV is a fairly
- extensive (though by no means exhaustive) Text GUI library, that is a
- lot of debug info.
-
- The project I'm working on has an executable size of just under 640K,
- with debug info included. But only ~200K without debug info. This
- causes a slight annoyance. If I want to do debugging I need to
- put debug info in only the areas I'm interested in. I can not use
- the debug menu option, since that applies to all files.
