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

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

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