Companion CD-ROM: gnutools/doc directory

The gnutools/doc directory contains the reference manuals for the GNU Tools. You need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader (or another PDF viewer) installed on your computer in order to read these manuals.

Please note that the manuals included in this directory have not been modified to reflect the environment in the Digital Systems Laboratory. This means, for example, that Using as, the GNU Assembler reference manual contains information about all of the processors it supports, not just the ARM microcontroller. In other words, not everything in these manuals applies to your situation. Caveat emptor!

You should read the Introductions to these tools, written specifically for this Laboratory, before reading any of these documents. You can find the Introductions in the unsw/common directory on this CD-ROM.
