BLINKER CLIPPER PAGE Enable / Disable automatic CA-Clipper 5.x code paging
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Purpose : Enable / Disable automatic CA-Clipper 5.x code paging
Syntax : BLINKER CLIPPER PAGE ON | OFF
Default : ON (if BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF)
OFF (if BLINKER INCREMENTAL ON)
This command can be used to disable the CA-Clipper 5.x dynamic paging system
for CA-Clipper code. The only reason for ever wishing to do this is if a
CA-Clipper 5.x program with no overlays is required, for example to create
an installation program. The paging system is automatically disabled by
Blinker when incremental linking is enabled, since the two options are
mutually exclusive.
When linking with BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF, the paging system is normally
automatically enabled, unless this command is used.
It is highly recommended that the CA-Clipper 5.x paging system be used in
all CA-Clipper 5.x programs, as it is often much faster than conventional
dynamic overlaying.
Note: Use of the BLINKER CLIPPER PAGE OFF command will result in
symbol-table compression and automatic overlaying of CA-Clipper code (as
with BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF), but the overlaying will be handled by
Blinker's overlay manager rather than CA-Clipper's dynamic paging system.
