On my Mac hnop compiles to 293848 bytes (221980 stripped), while on Linux it compiles to 241376 (164320 stripped). It would be interesting to compile it with John Meacham's Jhc, which claims to leave very little overhead in its executables. I know the current Jhc has a limit on total program size, but the current HNOP at least may slip under the wire (and I don't make any use of arrays, so it shouldn't be too slow). > I think the program could also benefit from a configure script and autotools. > But it's a great start.
