Syntax Rules
■ Options can be specified anywhere in any field, except as
noted, and in the LINK environment variable.
See: ◄LINK Environment Variable►
■ Options always begin with a forward slash (/).
■ Options are not case sensitive.
■ You can specify an option by using the shortest sequence of
characters that uniquely identifies the option. The help
screen for each option shows the the minimum legal
abbreviation with the optional part enclosed in brackets.
This help file uses meaningful yet legal forms of the option
names.
■ Some linker options take numeric arguments. You can enter
numbers in decimal format or C-language notation.
See: ◄Entering Numeric Arguments►
Usage
If an option appears more than once in the input fields or in the
LINK variable, the effect is the same as if the option were given
only once. If conflicting options appear, the most recently
specified input option takes effect. A command-line option or one
given in response to a prompt overrides one specified in the LINK
environment variable.
For example, the command-line option /SEG:512 cancels the effect
of the environment-variable option /SEG:256.
