The only way to obtain the same kind of : benefit with the P-code version would be to build a program which: : 1. knows the location of your source, including library source. : 2.

I have written some shell and awk scripts, which accomplish these tasks. The reason is fglgo core dumps, when .4gi is too large, so I had to reduce amount of .4go linked together.
