How big is XAS

To be completed : this currently refers to the IFCTR development version on DEC Alpha platform and does not necessarily include all latest instrument-specific additions.
The size of XAS sources is quite limited, of the order of 2 Mbyte (excluding external libraries which are formally not part of XAS), of which about 0.2 Mbytes of system-dependent code.

The bulk of XAS is written in Fortran, only about 60 kbytes of C code are included in the Unix version (just 20 kbytes in the VMS one)

Binary count

This count is approximate as not all versions are necessarily aligned (or even under the control of the author). Demos are excluded. The size of the executables may not be very meaningful, as it depends on the way system libraries are built and loaded.
