Wow, a 6 meg exe. What are you running under the hood to get a build that big? Lots of databases would be my guess.
Yeah, upx seems to be the favorite among forum users. Also keep in mind that since QB64 is a C translator, you are not going to get an optimized result as you could if you directly programed your app in C code. Of course you'd also never get the damn app completed, because it takes for forking ever to program large apps in C. Well, at least it does when I've tried it.
Oh, and +1 to Steffan for posting a GUI interface to upx. I did not know that one existed.
