    #include in multiple files

    Hello,
    I'm back to writing a program I left some time ago, and I have a couple of .cpp #including ncurses.h. Both of them compile into different object files, and I was wondering, as it's included into both objects, the code would be sizeof(ncurses.h) too big, or does the compiler (linker) delete that extra code? If it doesn't, is there a way of making it so that it's not so big?
    The compiler is g++, BTW,
    TIA

    There shouldn't be anything in ncurses.h that increases your object code anyway.
    All the buzzt!
