gcc explicitly recommends not using separate arguments. I'd be a little leery of using a form that isn't recommended (and pretty rare in my experience). I understand that it can look a little strange, but I think I would prefer to keep with established norms.
I see, I was not aware of this convention. it is only established for the -l
flag? Since other args are separate arguments (well only the output one)
-l
and -L
are the ones I am most aware of that usually do not use a space. Long flags usually use an equals or a space.
Ok thanks for the feedback!
Didn't check if
gcc
was accepting the flag without space but it definitely reduced the comprehension when first encountering it.
