You have several alternatives:

  - use a Makefile and run the compiler/linker via Make;

  - use Bash as your interactive shell;

  - put the list of your object files (or any other long command line)
    in a file and use that as a response file, like this:

       gcc @file

This is further explained in the FAQ (section 16.4).
