may be you were already using the VC linker because 250 kb is smaller than the minimal size used by polink (which is around 450kb).

I prefer to use C compile with optimizer checked in the compiler options dialog.
You can also use a cmd line to compile your code and set the optimize switch.
The new PB linker is slightly faster than the MS VC link.exe and the resulting exe is only a small percentage larger.
Since it now installs with PB v611b3, there is no big reason to download and install MS VC link.exe.

V6.11 has no difference between( C and without C, optimization and immersion). All is 250K.

Use 6.04 for small size and WindowsXP support.
Or 6.10 and higher for a size of 250kb and support Vista and higher.
As far as I understand there will be no return.
But I would like version 6.04 to be able to evolve a little for Windows (no Linux and no MacOS), since my programs are all within 50-200 kb. And as I understand it, this will not happen, because it will require double work.

In my impression, 6.02-6.04 there is a new issue on the path, so I only retain 6.01.
And the path old problems on the 6.10 inner path (such as include not supporting Chinese path).They have been completely solved!
