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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     The Build:command {run │ debug} rule specifies the commands that
     PWB is to execute when you run or debug the project's program.
 
     Syntax
 
     Build:command {run │ debug} "<command_line>"
 
     command           Tag to indicate that this rule is a command.
 
     run               Specifies the command that PWB uses to run the
                       project's target when you choose the Execute
                       command from the Run menu.
 
     debug             Specifies the command the PWB uses to debug the
                       project's target.
 
     <command_line>    A single operating-system command line that
                       specifies how to run or debug the project's
                       target.
 
     When PWB writes the project makefile, it generates description
     blocks for 'run' and 'debug' pseudotargets as specified by this
     rule. This allows you to use these targets on the NMAKE command
     line outside PWB.
 
     Within PWB, when you choose Execute or Debug from the Run menu, PWB
     runs the command directly, bypassing NMAKE. If you specify more
     than one command line, PWB runs only the first command. To run a
     sequence of operating-system commands, specify the name of a batch
     file that contains the desired commands.
