QPC File header on dosX_

Post by prime »

Hi all,

Is there a way of switching off the generation of the (automatic) file headers in QPC, I'm generating ROM code and I would rather the header wasn't there, as it gets in the way of building the ROM in the host OS.

Cheers.

Phill.

I'll try that but it be would be good if in a future release it was globally (or at least at a drive level), disableable.
Caused me a good deal of head scratching as releases pre 5.x didn't do it :)

Cheers.

Nah, sorry, I don't think I will ever do that. I've run into the same problem, yes, but in the end it's always the source file that is wrong (i.e. don't make it an EXE if it's not an EXE) and it makes sense to just fix it. And if all else fails there is also COPY_N which gets rid of the header.
