Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Syntax:  *name
 
     The copy command (*) copies a module from the library into a new
     object file of the same name. The module remains in the library.
 
     LIB names the object file by using the base name and adding an
     .OBJ extension and puts the file in the current directory. You
     cannot override this filename or location; however, you can later
     rename the file and copy or move it to any location. If a file
     with this name already exists, LIB overwrites the existing file.
 
     LIB writes the full filename of the object file (including drive,
     path to the current directory, base name, and extension) into the
     header of the object file.
