4 @c INTERNALS is used by md.texi to determine whether to include the
5 @c whole of that file, in the internals manual, or only the part
6 @c dealing with constraints, in the user manual.
9 @c NOTE: checks/things to do:
11 @c -have bob do a search in all seven files for "mew" (ideally --mew,
12 @c but i may have forgotten the occasional "--"..).
13 @c Just checked... all have `--'! Bob 22Jul96
14 @c Use this to search: grep -n '\-\-mew' *.texi
15 @c -item/itemx, text after all (sub/sub)section titles, etc..
16 @c -consider putting the lists of options on pp 17--> etc in columns or
18 @c -overfulls. do a search for "mew" in the files, and you will see
19 @c overfulls that i noted but could not deal with.
20 @c -have to add text: beginning of chapter 8
23 @c anything else? --mew 10feb93

29 @c Create a separate index for command line options.
31 @c Merge the standard indexes into a single one.
40 @c Use with @@smallbook.
42 @c Cause even numbered pages to be printed on the left hand side of
43 @c the page and odd numbered pages to be printed on the right hand
44 @c side of the page. Using this, you can print on both sides of a
45 @c sheet of paper and have the text on the same part of the sheet.
47 @c The text on right hand pages is pushed towards the right hand
48 @c margin and the text on left hand pages is pushed toward the left
50 @c (To provide the reverse effect, set bindingoffset to -0.75in.)

128 This manual documents how to use the GNU compilers,
129 as well as their features and incompatibilities, and how to report
130 bugs. It corresponds to GCC version @value{version-GCC}.
131 The internals of the GNU compilers, including how to port them to new
132 targets and some information about how to write front ends for new
133 languages, are documented in a separate manual. @xref{Top,,

192 @unnumbered Option Index
194 GCC's command line options are indexed here without any initial @samp{-}
195 or @samp{--}. Where an option has both positive and negative forms
196 (such as @option{-f@var{option}} and @option{-fno-@var{option}}),
197 relevant entries in the manual are indexed under the most appropriate
198 form; it may sometimes be useful to look up both forms.
