Thanks for the sample. For what it's worth, I got the executable down
to just 10K using powerbasic version 6, I suspect that's as small as it
can get, since I did have to include a winbase.inc that comes with the
compiler to get the function call of the GetTickCount64 call. But then

My best score is 67 kb after strip -s with the code below ... ;-)
Of course it will not work on every version of Windows.

thanks but I'm still a little stuck.I only do this kind of thing once every 5

Choose Simple Program from that dialog.
No uses clause at all, so everything you need, you
I just add a small program to illustrate the type cast between signed

var

si:= -127;
WriteLn( 'si ', si);
WriteLn( 'Byte(si) ', Byte(si));
si:= -1;
WriteLn( 'si ', si);
WriteLn( 'Byte(si) ', Byte(si));

Indeed.
This is a lossless operation.

If you want smallest executable size you must get rid of SysUtils also.
And you must call platform dependent OS API ...
