Unused routines still result in huge .EXE

It would have been a blast having you at the QBasic Forum back then. Most people during that time wouldn't believe big projects like ours were possible in QB. I lost track of another good guy named Dale Harris, no relation to Knee Pads Harris. He wrote a similar large business app in QB for point of sale. He called it his POS project. I told him it wasn't a POS project, because he needed FreeBAISC for that!

I remember that project. Didn't he ask for assistance around 2010 or so on the QB64 forum because he was working on converting it?

Unfortunately when I left the admin position I was no longer working on large Qbasic projects and had moved onto VB for windows until .NET came out. Then I dabbled in Delphi, Python, and PHP until I discovered QB64 in 2010.

He did, and I think as QB64 improved, he was able to make the conversion.
