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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     LINK objfiles [,exefile,mapfile,libraries,deffile] [;]
 
     See: <objfiles> Field
          <exefile> Field
          <mapfile> Field
          <libraries> Field
          <deffile> Field
 
     Fields on the command line are separated by commas and must be
     entered in the order shown. LINK assumes a default for any blank
     field except <objfiles>.
 
        ■ To leave a field blank, type just the comma that ends the
          field along with the comma that ended the previous field.
 
        ■ To select default responses for all remaining fields, enter a
          semicolon (;) as the last item on the line.
 
     Fielnames are not case sensitive. You can specify a path with a
     filename. If you enter a filename without an extension, LINK adds
     a default extension for the type of file. If you enter an
     extension, it overrides the default. To specify a filename without
     an extension, enter a period (.) after the filename.
 
     If you do not fill all fields and do not end the command line
     with a semicolon, LINK prompts you for the omitted files.
     See: LINK Prompts
 
     Options can appear anywhere in any field on the command line
     before the semicolon (except as noted).

     You can specify all responses, or responses for one or more
