- So I was writing this really small, simple app. (a mac version of xclock,
- just for fun.) It was only 3k. Then I added a call to sprintf(). It
- exploded the program to 22k.
-
- Please, no flames for this... I LOVE the THINK C environment, and I know
- that the 'open letter to symmantec' thread was months ago, but I do REALLY
- WISH that the THINK C linker (or loader) would recognize discrete blocks of
- code at the function (rather than file) level.
- While I'm at it some revision control system would be nice too...
-
- grrr.....
-
- ok I'm better now.
