[Oberon] Oberon 3 on Windows 7, PELinker, Windows executable extremely large!

[Dieter]

Hi Chris,

the size of the exe is quite understandable, because I have several 
ARRAYs, the biggest of which has approximately 158 MBytes.

So the question is, is there a way to distribute the software in a 
smaller package?

Thanks and regards,
Dieter
