The BC.EXE command-line options are not included in the QB Advisor
on-line help that comes with Version 4.50. They are discussed in the
following manuals:

1. Pages 353 and 354 of the "Microsoft QuickBASIC: Programming in
   BASIC" manual for Version 4.50

2. Pages 210 and 211 of the "Microsoft QuickBASIC 4.0: Learning and
   Using Microsoft QuickBASIC" manual for Versions 4.00 and 4.00b

The command-line options for BC are identical in QuickBASIC Versions
4.00, 4.00b, and 4.50. When you update to Version 4.50 from 4.00 or
4.00b, you can refer to the Version 4.00 or 4.00b manual for the BC
options list.

The BC /T (Terse) option is used in both Version 4.00b and 4.50. More
