─────LIBRARY Statement──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
     Syntax:  LIBRARY [libraryname] [initialization] [PRIVATELIB]
 
     This statement identifies the main output file as a DLL. It can
     also specify a library name and the initialization required.
     LIBRARY or NAME must precede all other statements. If LIBRARY is
     specified, the NAME statement cannot be used. If neither is used,
     the default is NAME. Fields can appear in any order.
 
     If <libraryname> is specified, it becomes the name of the library
     as it is known by OS/2 or Windows. This name can be any valid
     filename. If <libraryname> contains a space, begins with a
     nonalphabetic character, or is a reserved word, enclose the name
     in double quotation marks. The name cannot exceed 255 characters
     (not including surrounding quotation marks). The default is the
     base name of the DLL.
     See: ◄Reserved Words►
 
     The <initialization> defines the library initialization required:
 
     <initialization>   Meaning
 
     INITGLOBAL         Default. The initialization routine is called
                        only when the library is initially loaded into
                        memory.
 
     INITINSTANCE       The initialization routine is called each time
                        a new process gains access to the DLL. This
                        keyword applies only to OS/2.
 
     Specify PRIVATELIB to tell Windows that only one application may
     use the DLL.
