Hi all: I've noticed that executables are huge in Windows compared to Linux. My hello World program is 27K when compiled in Windows and 6.2K in Linux. This is C code and when I compile C++ the difference is even greater. About 488K in Windows and 7K in Linux for Hello World!! On Windows I compile with GCC 4.5.0 and on Linux it's GCC 4.3.2. Why? I'm just curious! __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
