I'm sorry, I've made a mistake - I forgot to unpack .gz archive :))) Anyways, If the final binary built by gcc is something like three times bigger that the binary build with ms compiler then I really doubt (not based on the difference of the sizes of final images, but on quality of assembled code) that there could be any performance advantages using gnugk on *nix vs ms on the same hardware, however I might be wrong. I'm not worrying about that, but wondering what gcc packs in with the openh323 into gnugk, maybe a few chapters of Shakespeare's works? Actually my windows build was with max optimizations, loop unrolling, max inlining, etc (no optimizations for file size at all) - still the .exe file is quite tiny. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "P.
