It is recommended that the ALIGN:2, BASE, FARCALLTRANSLATION, RUNFROMVDM, and EXEPACK:2 options be used when linking all executables. This will compress them in size and improve their performance. Executables linked with EXEPACK:2 can be run only on OS/2 versions 3.0 and later.
If BASE is used with .EXE files, the /BASE:0x10000 option must be used. Any other value will produce a warning.
