  This is probably a simple question (we're DOS impaired), but how
does one go about putting a large number of files (about 500
characters) on the gcc command line for the link phase?
  We're using the gnuish make (thanks for the suggestions!) but
something stops working (error 2) if there are more than about 100
characters on the gcc command line.  Running the link as a batch file
doesn't work either so it seems to be a DOS limitation.
  In the olden days (early 80s) link specifications were usually put
into a separate file.  Is this still necessary?  How is it done?
  Thanks in advance for any advice,
    Scott
