## DESCRIPTION

**faucc** is a C compiler, that can generate Intel 16 bit or 32 bit Code.

## OPTIONS

**faucc** tries to mimic the options of **gcc**. A number of options will be passed to the C preprocessor **cpp** or to the linker (done via a call to the c-compiler **gcc**) in unmodified form.

- **-B** *path*

  Override the directory prefix where **cc1** is looked up with *path*.

- **-D** *MACRO*, **-D** *MACRO***=***def*

  Define *MACRO* with the optional initial definition *def*. If *def* is omitted, it defaults to **1**.

- **-E**

  Only perform preprocessing, but do not run the compiler.

- **-I** *path*

  Add *path* to the include path in which header files are searched.

- **-L** *path*

  Add *path* to the library search path, in which the linker will look for libraries.

- **-MD**

  Output dependency information while preprocessing.

**-MF**, *file*

Output dependency information while preprocessing to *file*.

**-MP**,

When the preprocessor should output dependency information, it will generate PHONY targets for each dependency.

- **-MT** *target*

  When the preprocessor should output dependency information, use *target* as the dependency rule target.

- **-O** *level*

  Currently ignored.

- **-S**

  Output assembly code.

- **-T** *script*

  Use *script* as linker script.

- **-U** *macro*

  Undefine a previously defined *macro*.

**-Wl,***arg*, **-Xlinker** *arg*

Pass *arg* to the linker.

- **-b** *arch*

  Generate code for *arch* (either **i286** or **i386**)

- **-c**

  Perform compilation, but do not link.

- **-f** *arg*

  Pass code generation argument *arg* to the compiler. See the **cc1** man page for possible arguments.

- **-m** *arch*

  Currently ignored.

- **-nostdlib**

  With this option, the linker will only search for libraries that are passed as command line arguments.

- **-o** *file*

  Write output to *file*.

- **-print-libfaucc-file-name**

  Print the full path of the internal compiler library libfaucc.a.

- **-static**

  Perform static linking.

- **--freestanding**, **--no-stack-protector**

  Currently ignored.

## EXAMPLES

 **faucc -c hello-world.c -o hello-world.o**

Compile the program hello-world.c and output the object as hello-wolrd.o.

 **faucc -S -b i286 -o test.s test.c**

Compile the program test.c to 16 bit code and output the assembly listing to test.s, but do not assemble or link the result yet.
