BIND
BIND is the interactive form of Binder you can use to examine, modify, and link object
files. You can give BIND its commands from a terminal or a command file. In either
way, you can perform any of the following functions with Binder:
•
Build a target file from separate object files.
•
Build a target file for use as a library of shareable procedures.
•
Display object file contents.
•
Modify the values of words in the code and data blocks of the target file.
•
Request consistency checks for parameters or for common data blocks.
•
Reorder code blocks in a target file.
•
Specify external references you do not want Binder to resolve.
•
Produce optional load maps and cross-reference listings.
