"Peter Norton's Inside OS/2" book written by Peter Norton and Robert
Lafore, published by Brady, contains examples of OS/2 programming that
were written and compiled using the Microsoft C Optimizing compiler
Version 5.10. Page 536 of the book states the following:
The -o option prevents the compiler from thinking that the global
variables have been defined more than once.
This is incorrect. The /o option is an undocumented compiler switch
that allows you to name the executable file. It is the same as the /Fe
compiler switch.
