-L/exet:nt/su:windows

the "exet:" command is not in the documentation. 
exetype was there. or is this just a short form for it?

under dmc documentation in dmc website. we have :
-Nt Use old template name mangling scheme (obsolete) 
-NT Set code segment name 
its not there also. so what does it actually stands for. 


/* i was trying to compile this. 

#include <windows.h>
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Hello World!", "Note", MB_OK);
return 0;
}

*/

and i do : dmc source.c 

and i got a dos console behind the message box that came out. 

so i search in forum. if anyone had experienced this prob in their win32 build
using dmc. and i ended up with :

Try the following compiler switch: -L/exet:nt/su:windows
This works fine for me.
Good Luck!

How can you get rid of that console window (the place where the printf's and
scanf's go) when you're creating an exclusive GUI app that doesn't need one
?



and i got a messageBox without the dos console behind it. :)
thanks a lot to the message writer, Mr. E ; 
and of course thanks a lot more to the people who made the dmc possible. 


so, where do i get the info for compiler commands ? (-L/exet:nt/su:windows)

or at least what those nt, su, exet, ':', means. &/or how they are used.
forgive me if i missed the online documentation. but i couldnt find it.

The -L switches are parsed to the linker, so you have to find them on
the linker page:
