I begin to be happy with the size of F-PC when I started to work with
Quick C... It takes 15 Kb to the "Hello world!" program! And more 16Kb for
floating point! My F-PC, with portuguese-specific extensions, plot, point line
& paint (all modes of CGA and EGA selectable with specific words), Catch&Throw,
but without all debugging facilities (words, see, view, Z editor, status-line,
pop-up window stack...) takes only (really only) 63 Kb! (around 50Kb without
heads)! Sure my FPC programs will be smaller than the Quick C ones (I will need
to use Quick C, anyway) :-).
But if you want small programs, take a look at TCOM (it comes with F-PC).
I am using it as compiler when the application it's working, and using FPC for
development.
