     Syntax:  /c
 
     The /c option suppresses linking. Source files given on the
     command line are compiled, but the other operations are not
     carried out. Any object files created are not linked. No
     executable file is created. Object files specified on the command
     line are ignored.
 
     This option is useful when you are compiling individual source
     files that do not make up a complete program or when you are
     creating NMAKE makefiles.
 
     The /c option applies to the entire CL command line, regardless of
     its position.
