I know that, but in fact I really don't have sufficient knowledge to ask
something useful.
The final objective is to make ld link the output of DJGPP in a Win32 EXE, to
acomplish this I need to understand what inoformation I have avaliable and how
to get it, I mean I have no clue abou the structure of the COFF files (I still
not sure if this is the right type of object file), and even gets worst, I
don't know exactly what expect from this BFD (this is the library that read
the object files?) I read something about making scripts to make BFD read and
right files in the way I want, but nothing really helpfull.The INFO pages give
lists and lists of command line options and switchs, but the parts tha look
may have something presuppose some understanding about the inner process, and
looks like japanese to me. I tryed to open the ld source code, but there is a
lot of files with names that don't tell me nothing, and the fell files I think
may have something usefull, have more references to other places than a travel
agency.
So what I'm needing is some points or hints, or anything with some clue on
where to start with.
Help me PLEASE!!!!
Thanks
