Compiler Option: -o

Set object file path/name

Syntax
	-o < output file >

Parameters
	output file
		The name, with optional path, of the object file to create.

Description
	The -o option can be used to specify the file name for the object file 
	created while compiling an input file. By default, the name for the 
	object file (and other temporaries like assembly files) is based on the 
	name of the corresponding input file, but with an .o extension. This 
	option is useful for example in combination with CompilerOptc-c, or to force the 
	compiler to create temporary object files in other directories (if, for 
	example, the source code directory is or should be treated as 
	read-only).

	Given -o options are only assigned to input files that need to be 
	compiled, namely *.bas, *.rc, *.res and *.xpm.

	Note: -o options can appear in front of or behind the input file they 
	correspond to, but there cannot be multiple -o options for one input 
	file. For example, these are all accepted:
		fbc 1.bas -o 1.o
		fbc -o 1.o 1.bas
		fbc 1.bas -o 1.o 2.bas -o 2.o
		fbc 1.bas -o 1.o -o 2.o 2.bas
	However, this is an error:
		fbc 1.bas 2.bas -o 1.o -o 2.o

	The CompilerOptv-v option makes the compiler show the actual file names that it 
	uses.
