     You can specify a name for the main output file in the <exefile>
     field. You can specify a path with the filename. If you do not
     specify <exefile>, the default is the base name of the first
     object file plus the appropriate extension:
 
        ■ .EXE, if no options are specified
        ■ .COM, when the /TINY option is used
        ■ .DLL, when using a module-definition file containing the
           LIBRARY statement.
        ■ .QLB, when the /Q option is used
 
     See: /Q Option
          /TINY Option
          LIBRARY Statement
 
     LINK uses the <exefile> base name as the default base name for
 
        ■ The map file (.MAP), if created
        ■ The .DBG file created when both /CO and /TINY are specified
        ■ The .ILK and .SYM files when /INCR is specified
 
     See: /CO Option
