I used -Grts -a file_variable:filename switch to my program, which used file
file_variable (it was mentioned in program header). This worked like static
assign. Try to look somewhere in docs (use grep), I found it there. I am not
sure, whether some special switch should be given to the compiler.
If you find any better solution, I am interested in it.
