[comp.sys.apollo] software bloat resisted ...

paul@caen.engin.umich.edu (Paul Killey) (04/27/91)

it is reassuring that in this era of huge, bloated, ram and
vm chewing software we see HP/Apollo drawing the line and
keeping a lid on users who try and greedily suck up machine
resources.

i am of course referring to cc saying this:

too many -D options, ignoring -DONECASE

etc.

is there something like
#define MOREDEFINESTHANANYONEWOULDEVERUSE 16

as opposed to
list = (char **)calloc(argc, sizeof (char **));

mh users, make sure you don't use too many options when you compile.
scan will show all the message dates like so:
01/00

Or turn off pop, etc.
