Using LINK386 Options

• Options always begin with the slash character (/).

• Options are not case sensitive. For example, /de and /DE are equivalent.

• You can specify options in either the short or long form. The short form is the shortest sequence of characters that uniquely identifies the option. The individual description of each option lists both forms with the optional part enclosed in brackets. For example, /BAT[CH] indicates that either /BAT or /BATCH can be used.

• Some linker options take numeric arguments. You can enter numbers in decimal, octal, or hexadecimal radix using standard C-language syntax.

• You can also specify options in the LINK386 environment variable.

• Although use of the minimum one-letter abbreviations is allowed, if a future release has an additional option starting with the same letter, the one-letter option will no longer be usable.
