I have been having an argument with my DJGPP compiler all day, am
getting pretty desparate. How do I get a make file to automatically
assemble a preprocessed .S file. The trouble i have is that DOS
doesn't know the difference between a .s (preprocessed) and a .S
(to-be-preprossed) file. I tried cheeting by changing the original .S
extension into .asm and preprocessing this file with the command:
GCC -E -xassembler-with-cpp something.asm -o something.s
After this "as -o something.o somthing.s" starts yelling at me that
somthing.s doesn't contain any Intel assembly instructions it
recognizes. By the way, GCC under Linux does preprocess and assemble
this file correctly.

Thanx in advance!

Desperately yours, 
Anton.
