You have 1200 kB worth of debugging symbols in there (heh, Keymap has 
only ~650 ;^). If you are using BeIDE, choose Edit->Project Settings->
Linker->x86 Linker and check both link options. Then save and 
recompile. From now on, your application doesn't have debugging symbols 
in it anymore. You'll probably end up with an executable that is 
smaller than Be's, because Be left some of the symbols in. I suppose 
they are local symbols, ie. symbols corresponding to variables, 
functions and classes you defined yourself rather than symbols that 
correspond to things in libraries. I don't know how to keep local 
symbols and get rid of the others though. Anyone=3F
