     xxxlibs (Text)
 
     The PWBC library switches specify whether specific libraries have
     been installed and, if installed, whether they have default or
     explicit names.
 
     The setting for this switch appears in the [PWB-PWBC] tagged
     section in TOOLS.INI. To set any PWBC switch, choose PWBC from the
     Switch Owner box in the Options Editor Settings dialog box.
     See: ◄Options Editor Settings►
 
     Switch          Libraries
 
     Doslibs         DOS (real mode) libraries
     Winlibs         Windows libraries
     Windlllibs      Windows DLL libraries
     Os2libs         OS/2 (protected mode) libraries
     Dlllibs         OS/2 DLL libraries
     Mtlibs          OS/2 multithread libraries
 
     The library switches allow PWB to specify the appropriate library
     name at link time.
 
     You should set the switch according to the naming convention you
     selected when setting up. The SETUP program allows you to select
     one of the following formats for library names:
 
       ■  Default names of the form xLIBCy.LIB, where <x> specifies the
          memory model (S for small, M for medium, C for compact, or L
          for large) and <y> specifies the floating-point math package
          (E for emulator, 7 for 8087, or A for alternate math). The
          default name for a dynamic-link library is xDLLCy.LIB, where
          <y> is either E or A. Default Windows DLL library names have
          the form xDLLCyW.LIB. Default QuickWin library names have the
          form xLIBCyWQ.LIB.
 
       ■  Explicit names of the form xLIBCyo.LIB, where <x> specifies
          the memory model, <y> specifies the floating-point math
          package, and <o> indicates that the library is for a specific
          operating-mode: R for real-mode (DOS), W for Windows, P for
          protect-mode (OS/2).
 
     Syntax
 
     <switch>: { none │ default │ explicit }
 
     <switch>    One of the switch names listed in the table above.
 
     none        Specifies that the library is not installed.
 
                 PWB asks you to choose between default and explicit
                 names when you select a project template that requires
                 the library.
 
     default     Specifies that the library has the default name.
 
                 NOTE: This setting is not recommended for the QuickWin
                       libraries (xLIBCyWQ), Windows DLL libraries
                       (xDLLcyW.LIB), OS/2 DLL library (LLIBCDLL.LIB),
                       or OS/2 multithread library (LLIBCMT.LIB).
 
                       Use explicit names for these libraries.
 
     explicit    Specifies that the library has the explicit (fully
                 qualified) name.
 
     Default
 
     <switch>: explicit
 
     If the switch is not present in TOOLS.INI, the PWBC extension
     assumes default names for all libraries.
