This is a question about how to use gcc, not about the coding and development of gcc itself, so should have gone to the gcc-help list; please post there next time. (The answer you're looking for is documented in the manual and in the output of 'gcc --help'. Look for the '-v' flag). cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today....
