As of gcc 2.0, there is only one command neccessary to compile either assembly,
C, or C++, and that command is....gcc.  Gcc "decides" what type of compilation
to invoke based on the filename extension of the source file.  For example,
``.s'' is assembly, ``.c'' is ANSI-C, and ``.cc'' is C++.  [Several other
extension variants are also recognized as C++].

Just be sure *not* to use gcc to do your linking.  Use link386 for that.

>Also, is there any ftp-able documentation on link386?

No.  Link386 is documented in the Developer's Toolkit, which costs money,
but is probably worth it. [It contains an online API reference]
