now, wx-devcpp only can compile a debug edition in which size of execute file is very large. I hope next editon can add function for compile release edition, just like VC.

Hi!
All you have to do is settings debug info to "no" in your project options. Additionally specify "Strip executable" to reduce the size.
OS: OpenSuSE, Ubuntu, Win XP Pro
wx: svn
Compiler: gcc 4.5.1, VC 2008, eVC 4

It will be a too much work for the wx-devcpp development. Please add your request to main Dev-C++ site, I'm planning to merge the upates/bugfixes from the main Dev-C++ source base every 2-3 months.
