+<h3 id="libout">Simple Library Output Format</h3>
+
+<p>This mode produces a simple library file that can be imported using the
+<b>import</b> command.  This is of use if you wish to split a large project
+into smaller assembly jobs, for example, to stop you needing to assemble large
+chunks of graphics data every time.  The library contains all the memory from
+the assembled file and records the values of all global labels.  Note that
+private macro variables and local labels aren't saved, but they'd be useless
+anyway.</p>
