ADDITIONS TO DOCUMENTATION
Compiler/Linker Assistant 1.22
(C) 1990,1991 by Sequential Software
This text covers the changes to the program with this maintenance
release. Other information contained in L.DOC is still valid.
To install LINKER on your system for the first time follow the
instructions for installation as outlined in L.DOC. Users of LINKER
earlier than version 1.2 should erase the old executable and help
files from disk, and replace them with these newer versions. If you
are using LINKER 1.2 you may just copy the new L.EXE on top of the old
one. The new program will automatically convert old data files from
any of the earlier version to the new format.
There is a new command line switch for LINKER. The updated
command line looks like this:
L {/Q} {/R | /C | /CO filename}
/Q, /R and /C all function as documented in L.DOC. The new
command line switch "/CO" tells LINKER to compile your source code
only and skip the linking process.
When given with a data file name, the program will compile
modules in batch mode like the /C switch. If errors occur while
compiling, the DOS ERRORLEVEL is set to a value of 50 and the program
exits. After all modules are compiled LINKER will skip the link call
and exit to DOS. If the switch is given without a data file name, the
program will start in full screen mode. Pressing the TAB key will
compile modules, then Linker will exit to the DOS prompt. When given
with the /r datafile parameter, Linker will read the data file and
start in full screen mode. Pressing TAB will compile the modules only
and exit to DOS.
There are two special key presses you may use while editing text
on the data lines. ALT-C will clear the entire line of text and home
the cursor on that line. ALT-R will restore the previous contents of
the line provided you have not left the field. Once you leave a field
the previous contents are lost. These key presses have always been
present, but due to an oversight they had been omitted from the
documentation.
Sequential Software now has a 24 hour support BBS. The BBS number
is (606) 561-5766. We support 1200/2400/9600 baud with the CompuCom
Speedmodem. Here you may ask a question, tell us what you think, or get
the latest version of our products.
