Compiled exe and proc/var names

To Fred or Freak: If I compile an exe that has a procedure
named "Unlock()" and a global variable named "unlocked",
can these be found in the final exe by a disassembler?

I'm worried that even if I can't see them with a hex editor,
they might show up when disassembled.

you can confirm it yourself using podump or bindump on windows or nm on linux
they shouldn't show up in an exe, though if they were in a dll they could well be present

No, it's not stored in the final exe, unless you use the 'Runtime' keyword.
