I remember an article back in the 90s where the author said somebody dropped a source code printout of a C compiler on his desk and it was like 4 inches thick, and he compared that to late 80's Turbo Pascal, a compiler and full IDE that took up 32k.

Did the source code printout have an annoying space accent, or... ?
