  BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF         (Clipper) 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Purpose : Disable incremental linking

  Syntax  : BLINKER INCREMENTAL OFF

  Default : ON

  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.

  Using this command also enables symbol table compression for both
  Clipper Summer'87 and Clipper 5.01, 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.

  Using this option with Clipper 5.01 applications also enables dynamic
  paging of Clipper code, which provides very good runtime performance for
  overlaid Clipper code, with negligible memory overhead.
