The Watt32 libs are pretty big. The regular WatTCP is a lot smaller and 16-bit Internet apps built with it aren't extremely large (my own irc client, as an example, is 71K when compiled with Borland for 8088, and 656K when compiled with GNU for 386. This is an example case; may not be typical of other programs. Also, it works better under Borland for certain reasons relating to Ctrl-C/Ctrl-Brk handling that I haven't yet figured out in djgpp.) -uso. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on "Lean Startup Secrets Revealed."
