PROGRAM:
  liblink ... library linker

USAGE:
  liblink main_file_name [include_file_name]

FUNCTION:
  "liblink" links modules in Pascal source files (library
  files).  It genarates include file according to the
  following linker directives.

  in MAIN file
    {#scan library_file_name1,library_file_name2,...}
    {#external module_name1,module_name2,...}
  in LIBRARY file
    {#name module_name}
    {#external module_name1,module_name2,...}

  When include_file_name is absent, 'LIB.INC' is assumed.

EXAMPLE:
  To make liblink.com and update.com files in this diskette,
  >liblink liblink.pas
  >turbo
  >liblink update.pas
  >turbo

-----------------------------------------------------------------

PROGRAM:
  update ... update library

USAGE:
  update library_file_name [include_file_name]

FUNCTION:
  "update" updates library_file from include_file.
  When include_file_name is absent, 'LIB.INC' is assumed.

EXAMPLE:
  To update 'update.pas' from 'LIB.INC',
  >update update.pas

-----------------------------------------------------------------

PROGRAM:
  rel2pas ... transforms relocatable code to Pascal inline code

USAGE:
  rel2pas relocatable_file_name [inline_file_name]

FUNCTION:
  "rel2pas" tranforms REL file to Turbo Pascal source file
  with inline codes.
  The extension name of relocatable_file_name is replaced to
  "REL", automatically.  Thus,
    rel2pas upcase
    rel2pas upcase.abc
  are identical to
    rel2pas upcase.rel

  When inline_file_name is absent, the same file name as
  relocatable_file_name with extension "INC" is assumed.
  In the above case, 'upcase.inc' is generated as inline file.

EXAMPLE:
  To make inline codes from assemble source 'upcase.mac',
  >m80 upcase,=upcase
  >rel2pas upcase
