Creating CA-Clipper programs without overlays
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In some cases it is necessary to create a real mode CA-Clipper application
with no overlays whatsoever, e.g. for an installation program which requires
multiple diskettes, and thus can never return to the .EXE for overlays. In
these cases the following two commands should be used:
BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF // BLI INC OFF must be followed by
BLINKER CLIPPER PAGE OFF // BLI CLI PAG OFF for this to work
and any BEGIN/ENDAREAs must be removed from the link script.
The command BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF compresses the symbol table and removes
the padding between procedures as usual, but BLINKER CLIPPER PAGE OFF must
then be used immediately afterward to disable Blinker's automatic overlaying
of CA-Clipper code using the paging system.
