EXE size?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/EXE size?

A very simple program compiles to an EXE that is 1.0+ mb. How do you make smaller EXE's?

Use the framework command and import only the modules you are using in your app otherwise it includes them all.

..by only using the modules you actually use..

halo, there's a great framework assistant around here somwhere which helps a lot with this!

I foget who wrote it though....

http://upx.sourceforge.net/

just drag the exe onto upx, it takes the size down to about 400kb

i don't know about modules in blitzmax, but this'll shrink any .exe

doing both would probabley work even better
