My objectives are VERY limited. I want to learn PowerPC assembly language and I thought that doing some C compiles and looking over the assembly source output would be helpful. So, all I want to do is make the GCC compiler generate PowerPC assembly code to some file that I can look over. In checking the documentation it seems that I can tell the compiler to generate code for a Powerpc machine by using the "-mpowerpc" parameter. It also seems that I can tell the compiler to quit after generating this code by using the "-s" parameter. I'm entering these options on the command line like: "gcc hello.c -mpowerpc -s", but it isn't working. Thanks for any help. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
