Commodore PC - Cursor Functions; Changing the cursors position

Note When linking modules produced by a high-level-language v-^
compiler that supports overlays, you must specify overlay modules
by putting them in parentheses. Since masm has no overlay
manager, you can specify overlays only for object files linked with ^J
the run-time library of a language compiler that supports overlays.
For example, you can use overlays with modules compiled with
Microsoft Fortran versions 3.2 and later, Microsoft Pascal versions w
3.2 and later, and Microsoft C versions 30 and later. See your
language compiler's manual for details on specifying overlays.

Examples:
Using Link with The first example below uses the object file fileobj to create the {^J
command line options executable file fileexe. Link searches the file, lib library for rou
tines and variables used within the program. It also creates a file
called file, map, which contains a list of the program's segments . \
and groups: ^—^
link file.obj,file.exe7file.map7routine.lib
The first example is equivalent to the following line:
link file , , 7routine I)
The second example uses the two object files, startup, obj and
fileobj, on the current drive to create an executable file named i j
fileexe on drive B. Link creates a map file on the \map direc- ^~"/^
tory of the current drive, but does not search any libraries:
link startup+file,b:file,\map\file; K^J
The final example links the object modules modaobj, modb.obj,
mode obj, and startup, obj: {^_J
link moda modb mode 5 tartup/PAUSE,,abc,b:\1ib\math
The linker searches through the library file math, lib in the \lib
directory on drive B for routines and data used in the program. It
then creates an executable file named modaexe, and a map file . \
named aba map. ^-^
The pause option in the command line causes the linker to pause
and ask you to change'disks before it creates the executable file. / \
(This option is described in more detail in the section "Pausing to ^—^
Change Disks" later in this chapter.)
