You forgot the ":-)". Really. I use GNU software all the time, on a 5 or 6MB machine, without paging (well, maybe a little, but nothing noticeable). GNU Emacs wants about 1MB and GCC wants 1-2MB when compiling non-trivial code. Also, GCC generates code that is as small or smaller than most other compilers (although I have no idea what the Objective-C preprocessor generates). We'll have to wait and see, I guess. Jeff Siegal
