<p><code>nlmconv</code> converts the relocatable ‘<samp>i386</samp>’ object file
|
<var>infile</var> into the NetWare Loadable Module <var>outfile</var>, optionally
|
reading <var>headerfile</var> for NLM header information. For instructions

on writing the NLM command file language used in header files, see the

‘<samp>linkers</samp>’ section, ‘<samp>NLMLINK</samp>’ in particular, of the <cite>NLM
|
Development and Tools Overview</cite>, which is part of the NLM Software
|
Developer’s Kit (“NLM SDK”), available from Novell, Inc.
|
<code>nlmconv</code> uses the <small>GNU</small> Binary File Descriptor library to read
|
<var>infile</var>;
|
see <a href="http://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/BFD.html#BFD">BFD</a> in <cite>Using LD</cite>, for more information.
|
</p>
|
<p><code>nlmconv</code> can perform a link step. In other words, you can list
|
more than one object file for input if you list them in the definitions
|
file (rather than simply specifying one input file on the command line).
|
In this case, <code>nlmconv</code> calls the linker for you.
