Richard, it's a switch you use when you invoke SDCC with intention to redirect its output to a file.
If you type: C:>sdcc blinkey.c > blinkey.out all the output of sdcc will go to the console window, and blinkey.out will have size of 0 bytes. If you type C:>sdcc --use-stdout blinkey.c > blinkey.out the console remains empty and all the output of sdcc will go to blinkey.out. Please, give it a try.
