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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.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:  /E[XEPACK]
 
     The /EXEPACK option directs LINK to remove series of repeated
     bytes (usually null characters) and to optimize the load-time
     relocation table before creating the executable file.
 
     Cautions
 
        ■ /EXEPACK can reduce file size but might increase load time.
          In unusual cases, this option can increase file size; LINK
          generates a warning when this occurs.
 
        ■ You cannot use CodeView on packed MS-DOS programs because
          the unpacker appended to the program is incompatible with
          CodeView. There is no conflict with a Windows program.
