   By using compile time conditionals, one can generate as many entirely   
   different EXEs from a single PAS as one wishes, until one hits a size   
   constraint.   
      
   In your case, with one PAS and two EXEs, you can keep one copy of common   
   code.  Of course, you could use units, but that would be multiple PAS   
   files.
