If that is true, then the CRT unit compiles to around 50 bytes. Is that 
correct?
In testing I did with TP7 to prove this to someone else, I found that the 
differences were much less with the compiled exe than expected, where I 
expected adding/removing CRT would at least cause a couple of Kb size change, 
it only caused one of about 50 bytes (from memory) where the only part used 
is ClrScr.
