When Borland created programming tools for Windows, it added the "/T"
switch to tlink to specify the output file type.  You follow the 'T'
with 'd' or 'w' for DOS or Windows.  You follow the 'd' or 'w' with
'c' (COM), 'e' (EXE), or 'd' (DLL).  On a whim, I tried substituting
'o' after the 'T' and checked the result with EXEHDR and, lo and
behold, an OS/2 1.3 executable was produced!
