This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).


The GNU Compiler Collection is free software.  See the files whose

names start with COPYING for copying permission.  The manuals, and

some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the

individual source files for details.


The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information

as HTML and plain text.  The source of this information is

gcc/doc/install.texi.  The installation information includes details

of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.


See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it

includes) for usage and porting information.  An online readable

version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*.


See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully.


Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range

notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range,

inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed

individually.
