Re: [Tnfox-discussion] TnFOX Size?

[The D. J. <the...@gm...>]

I actually did use 3.4 for the compile of TnFOX (3.3 wouldnt work), and its
still a pretty large lib compared to FOX.  Stripping can probably take a
small chunk away but not enough to make a large difference.

What is all being compiled into TnFOX that makes it so much larger?  All I
need is basic GUI code with the IPC features.

Talent is not something you learn, its something you refine.

If you make something that any idiot can use, only idiots will use it.
