           Summary: The librarian (lib.exe) confused by dashes in object
                    names
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

I'm not sure if this is the correct place for reporting this, but it's I across
it because of rebuild's use of dashes in object file names.

Doing the following will cause lib to go into interactive mode instead of
adding b-c.obj to the library:

---
c:\prog\test\lib>lib -c test.lib a.obj

c:\prog\test\lib>lib test.lib b-c.obj
Digital Mars Librarian Version 8.02n

list file           (.lst)
c:\prog\test\lib>oops...
---

Adding an option, like -p512 when adding b-c.obj fixes the problem.  Putting
quotes around the file name doesn't help.
