It gives me an error for each of the functions in the .h file.
For example I have functions named:
get_parameters()
format_DLY()
format_MLY()
to_CSV_DLY()
etc...

and when I get my errors during linking, it says "multiple definitions of
_format_DLY" (or _get_parameters, etc).  Then the next line will say "first
defined in program.c line 11" (or whatever the line number is that is the
start of that function in my program.c file).

It doesn't give me any errors mentioning main.c specifically.  Also, both
main.c and program.c compile just fine with no errors or warnings.  It's
just when linking that I get these errors.

Any suggestions at all are really appreciated.

Thanks a bunch DJ!
