 Linking 16 bit Windows programs
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 The first step is to set up the Blinker link script file and optional module
 definition file, including the RC module definition command to replace the
 final resource compiler pass. Please refer to Chapter 2 `Quick Start', and
 in particular the section for the compiler you are using, for an example
 link script and module definition file.

 If required, set up a shortcut or icon for Blinker with a command line
 indicating the name and path of the link script file.

 Compile the source code for Windows, as directed in your compiler manual.
 Run the resource compiler to create any resources required, as directed in
 your compiler manual.

 Run Blinker with the link script file created above, either using the
 shortcut or icon or from the DOS command line, to create the .EXE file and
 attach any resources to the end of the .EXE file.

 A 16 bit Windows module definition file will typically resemble the
 following:

 ; TEST.DEF
 NAME           TEST
 DESCRIPTION    'Small 16 bit Windows program'
 EXETYPE        WINDOWS 3.1
 CODE           MOVEABLE DISCARDABLE
 DATA           PRELOAD MOVEABLE MULTIPLE
 RC             TEST
 HEAPSIZE       1024
 STACKSIZE      8192
 EXPORTS        ....
