I think thats the way to go, a sequential function's adress minus the
functions address. how can I make sure they're sequentially alligned?

 But better a (dirty) way then no way at all.

I've also been playing with the idea of writing the function, and trying to
compile that one function in a text file and importing at compile time in my
main program. Then I can also count the bytes in the file.
sounds an awfull lot of work :p
