In C version 6.00, an object file is sent out with the package to help
decrease the size of executable files by about 8K to 10K. The online
help states that the name of the object file is NOGRAPH.OBJ; in fact,
the name of the file is TXTONLY.OBJ.

To get any information on what this object file does, you can type "qh
NOGRAPH.OBJ" (without the quotation marks). This will bring up
QuickHelp with the information on this particular file.

The help states that NOGRAPH.OBJ is used to reduce the size of an
executable that uses only the text-mode functions from GRAPHICS.LIB.

The actual filename is TXTONLY.OBJ.
