[DUG] Command Line Compiler

[John Bird]

Like many I have need to recompile a whole suite of programs, and the 
command line compiler seems ideal for this.

However it seems to put the exe files in the same folder as the project 
files, which means that it is not following the project setups eg for 
Directories/Conditionals  Output folder.

I tried comapring the exe files made by the IDE and the command line, eg for 
one they are the same size but do have some binary differences.

What are these other differences?

Ideally I want to set up the command line compiler to produce the same as my 
IDE compiler, but this does not seem obvious.  Or turn on or off some well 
defined things, such as turn on optimisations

I found a good article such as

But  I hesitate to use the command line  if there are other unknown 
differences in the exe produced.

But I am getting mightily bored with opening one project after another and 
hitting F9
