somehow, the guy who wrote a flight simulator "in 1536 bytes of real code"
still remains my hero (ioccc's 98 contest, ioccc.org).

as for file sizes -- plan9's clock.c, which i modified slightly to compile
under plan9port yesterday, turned out to a binary of 2MB... at least it
occupies only 1.8MB ram :) go X!
