Description

This option, called cut, is very useful when compiling files copied from an MS-DOS file system. Filenames are clipped to DOS length (eight characters).

Listing: Example of the cut option, -!

The cut option truncates the following include directive: #include "mylongfilename.h" 
to: 
#include "mylongfi.h"
