Probably tells the compiler to put any lumps of data over 1024
bytes into far data -- slightly slower and bulkier code for refs to
such data.

Try reducing the number, e.g. halving it, to get more
moved out of the 64K.

.c or .h?  Yes, you can same some space that way.  That
was the kind of thing I did to produce the 'tiny' version
of TextWin (compare the source, if you want to know the
things I kicked out, but perhaps they're things you want).
You are already compiling the 'small' version of ka9q,
I hope?
