Sorry - may just be me, but I don't understand the limits at all - I can
have 8K
source if it gives a 2.9K exe but the max source code size is 2560?

Also - can I have data external to the executable - read from disc so it
isn't in RAM?

mind you - seeing as I'm using windows and it sticks all sorts in RAM i may
be struggling
