I am using a compiler/linker package which requires all object
modules to be located in the same subdirectory, unless an appropriate
APPEND command has been issued. If done, the linker finds the object
modules accordingly and saves the executable modules in the current
directory (unless otherwise noted in the parameter list).
Needless to say I would like to use the APPEND command, given
hundreds of object modules scattered (logically) amongst five
directories.
However, APPEND does not work from WIN 3.0 ("Incorrect DOS version"
is the error message). Is there another way to achieve the same
results as the DOS APPEND command? I speculated about using another
DOS command that effectively makes the linker see one directory when
actually there are several. I also speculated that there might be Win
3.0 specific solutions (i.e. a replacement for APPEND, you would
think MS wouldn't simply eliminate a useful utility :->
