Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.
Using the LIB Command Line

     You can specify all the LIB input on the command line. The LIB
     command line has the following syntax:
 
     LIB oldlibrary [options] [commands] [,[listfile] [,[newlibrary]]] [;]
 
     ◄<oldlibrary>►     The library to be created or modified. This
                        field is required.
 
     ◄<options>►        Options that control the LIB session.
 
     ◄<commands>►       Commands to add, delete, replace, copy, and
                        move modules in the library.
 
     ◄<listfile>►       A filename for the cross-reference listing. If
                        you don't specify a name, a file is not created.
 
     ◄<newlibrary>►     The name for the new library.
 
     Fields must appear in order but can be left blank (except for
     <oldlibrary>). A semicolon (;) after any field terminates the
     command; LIB assumes defaults for any remaining fields.
 
     If you enter a library name and follow it immediately with a
     semicolon, LIB performs a consistency check on the library and
     takes no other action.
