LOL. I just do:

     touch minit.obj

as required.

Mine's more automated. :p

Btw, have you had the chance to look at
https://github.com/DigitalMars/optlink/pull/1 ?


I looked at it, but I haven't gone through it. Thanks for doing it!
What's standing in the way of you building it?

I actually succeded in building optlink, but there are a few things that had to
be changed:

- masm (v9 or v10) complained about a number of "mov AL,errorCode" which had to
be changed to AX (I guess it would not assume an external to fit into a byte)

- I had to add a number of ridiculous "BYTE PTR" modifiers

- The SLR tools are 16-bit executables so I installed a VM running XP just to
find out that they don't work there too. Instead I changed the makefiles to use
lib from the dmd distrubution rather than optlib.

What version of masm are you using?

5.10 from 1988 :-)

Masm constantly changed the syntax it would accept.


Shall I make it a pull request?

You can, but I don't have those masm's. Or maybe I do in VS10, I just never 
looked.
