Glad to know i'm not the only one.  v.3.00 does produce much smaller .prg
files, once they fix these linker bugs, I'll be very happy.  Also, 3.00
rejects <tab> characters as illegal characters.  Les Codle (TDI) told me 
that that will definitely be fixed, and that a fixed compiler/linker will be 
available in a month or so... (judging from his past history, that probably
means 2-3 months...)

If the facts do not conform to the theory, they must be disposed of.
