No, I don't think you're a pirate. That's one of the most asked
questions on the Lattice BBS, and they only get registered users.
Since you're new to Lattice, I'll point out that the BBS is an
_excellent_ resource, and you should use it. Updates, pathces &
work-arounds appear there long before they appear here.

Anyway, in answer to your question, there are two ways to do this.

If you've got a file for BLINK, you specify "DEFINE _main=_tinymain"
in that file. They also claim you can do it on the command line to
BLINK, but I've never tried that. This documented on page L264.

If you want to roll your own, find umain.c in the source tree (I
forget exaclty where), and compile that -dTINY, then link the
resulting .o file in before you c.o. This isn't documented, but is the
way I do things, because I have other changes to that startup code I
want to include much of the time.

For even smaller results, you can change your main routine to _main.
That does away with the all the startup code, including CLI command
line parsing. But look at umain.c yourself.

Side note to Jonas Flygare: have you tried the 5.02 BLINK with 5.04?
