Invoking Command-Line Tools

### File Extensions

Files specified on the command line are identified by contents and file extension, as in the Carbide IDE.

Although the command-line version of the Carbide C/C++ compiler accepts non-standard file extensions as source, it also emit a warning when this happens. By default, the compiler assumes that a file with any extensions other than .c, .h, or .pch is a C++ source file. The linker must be able to identify all files as object code, libraries, or command files. It ignores all other files.
