Sure.  LINK68 can handle *many* files, to wit:

	foo.68k=bar.o, baz.o, bletch.o,
	argle.o, bargle.o, this.o, is.o, a.o,
	silly.o, list.o, of.o, names.o, all.o, ending.o,
	in.o, a.o, period.o, and.o, a.o, letter.o, o.o

Just put a newline wherever a line would exceed 128
characters; that's probably your problem.

AR68 (as shipped with the developer's package) simply
doesn't work.  A working version is available on the ST
Developer's SIG on Compuserve.
