RE: [Dev-C++] c or c++. that is the question

[Reid T. <Rei...@at...>]

initial file sizes compiled on cygwin gcc/g++.
these compiled on RH 7.2 gcc/g++ - not as large a difference, but a =
difference.
Not sure how that would equate out if the program was 10K lines, or 100K =
lines, etc
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.2 2.96-108.7.2)
