by having the symbol table for the library (ends in .a) and by including that
symbol table instead of a dynamic link...

gcc -o someSDLapp someSDLapp.c /usr/local/lib/libSDL.a \
/usr/local/lib/libSDLmain.a

I think if you use the -static flag to gcc, it will make a completely static
binary (even libc stuff is built in), and ya probly don't want that :)

The opinions expressed by me are not necessarily opinions. In all
probability, they are random rambling, and to be ignored. Failure to ignore
may result in severe boredom or confusion. Shake well before opening. Keep
