I was told that strip got rid of the symbol table on the binary (how this differs from what you get with -g I don't know), but it never got rid of 2/3 of the file size ! I too can't see any difference in functionality after stripping, anyone at Meiko care to somment, or anyone explain what strip does ? -- Paul Mitchell (CMA#136(18) MAG#65715 DoD#0145) | Physics Department, JANET: p.j.mitchell@uk.ac.keele.seq1 | Keele University, Keele, USENET: p.j.mitchell@seq1.keele.ac.uk | Staffordshire, ST5 5BG, U.K. BITNET: p.j.mitchell%seq1.keele.ac.uk@ukacrl | (+44 or 0)782 621111 ext 3966
