 LIBRARY                       Specify one or more program libraries
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Purpose  : Specify one or more program libraries

 Syntax   : LIBRARY [d:][path]<libname>
            [, [d:][path]<libname> ...]

 Default  : Compiler specified default libraries

 Example  : LIB C:\LIBS\Mylib1, Mylib2, D:\OTHER\Mylib3

 The LIBRARY command is used to specify to the linker the names of one or
 more program library files required by the program. The default file
 extension of .LIB is assumed, and need not be specified. If more than one
 library is specified in a single LIBRARY command, each library name should
 be separated by a comma.

 Library files are processed differently from FILE commands in that a LIBRARY
 command causes only modules which are required by the program to be
 included. i.e. modules are included from a library if a public definition in
 the library module resolves an external reference. Object files named in
 FILE commands are included regardless of whether they are required or not.

 The LIBRARY command may be used for both root and overlaid libraries. If the
 library is to be overlaid, the LIBRARY command should be placed within a
 BEGINAREA / ENDAREA sequence.
