Probably - though 246MB is pretty big!! On slackware linux it's just
under 47MB. You could try stripping it if OSX has a 'strip' program. On
slack that reduces the executable to about 10MB (strip removes the debug
symbols in case you weren't aware).

Err, yes. Well, assuming you have a reasonably sized dongle anyway...
