 2 Command-Line Options
 **********************
 
 This chapter describes command-line options available in _all_ versions
 of the GNU assembler; see Machine Dependencies, for options
 specific to particular machine architectures.
 
    If you are invoking 'as' via the GNU C compiler, you can use the
 '-Wa' option to pass arguments through to the assembler.  The assembler
 arguments must be separated from each other (and the '-Wa') by commas.
 For example:
 
      gcc -c -g -O -Wa,-alh,-L file.c
 
 This passes two options to the assembler: '-alh' (emit a listing to
 standard output with high-level and assembly source) and '-L' (retain
 local symbols in the symbol table).
 
    Usually you do not need to use this '-Wa' mechanism, since many
 compiler command-line options are automatically passed to the assembler
 by the compiler.  (You can call the GNU compiler driver with the '-v'
 option to see precisely what options it passes to each compilation pass,
 including the assembler.)
