Re: 5) Whoops, my appology.  The window desk accessory included in the
LightSpeed C distributiuon has 1800 bytes or so of object code, but
generates a 4k desk accessory when linked by LSC to its default libraries.
Supplying my own library reduced the size to 3.5k.  Now 500 or so extra
bytes isn't too bad, but that means the program is about 15% bigger than
it should be.  The next step is to translate the accessory into T.M.L.
pascal and see how the code generation size compares.
