Re: RES: Libs for cross compilation

Hi Daniel,

My program itself if striped weights about 60Kb. With all those libs it
weights about 2Mb and that's terrible.

I thought if I statically link with all libs and strip all unused code
(I'm not certain it is possible) it will probably weight about 600Kb and
that would be acceptable.

If I'm correct that's how Patric did with his X-Chat. It only weights
600Kb and it's only one file. And it is much bigger program than mine is.

All the best,
Kostik.
