 - exclusions: some paths or some file to exclude from the main sources. A file can be relative or include [a symbolic string][lnk_sym]. A path is only handled if it's the direct parent of a file.
 - extraSources: either _*.lib_, _*.a_, _*.o_ and _*.obj_,  files or _*.d_, _*.di_ source files. If a path that ends with an asterisk is added (e.g: _folderA\folderB\*_) then every source files located in this folder and its sub-folders will be passed to the compiler.
+- forceExtension: when set, the output filename has always the right file extension. This option is useful when the _outputFilename_ contains periods but no extension (example: `-offoo.bar` under linux generates the executable `foo.bar` but under windows and if the option is set `foo.bar.exe`).
 - importModulePaths: a list of paths where _DMD_ has to look for the libraries sources. (**-I**)
