 BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Purpose:
 Disable CA-Clipper incremental linking.

 Syntax:
 BLINKER INCREMENTAL ON | OFF

 Default:
 ON.

 Description:
 This command is used to turn off Blinker's use of incremental linking.
 Every link performed will be a full link, no new incremental .BIF file will
 be created, and no padding will be left between procedures to allow room for
 incremental linking.

 This command should be used for the final link of an application to obtain
 its smallest memory requirement, and best runtime performance.

 Symbol Table Compression:
 Using this command also enables symbol table compression for both CA-Clipper
 Summer '87 and CA-Clipper 5.x, which reduces the size of the application
 symbol table by removing unneeded duplicate entries.
 The amount of reduction achieved may vary between individual applications,
 depending on programming style, and the size of the application.

 Dynamic Paging:
 Using this option with CA-Clipper 5.x applications also enables dynamic
 paging of CA-Clipper code, which provides very good runtime performance for
 overlaid CA-Clipper code, with negligible memory overhead.

 Example:
 # Disable incremental linking for final link
 BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF
