Like other gnu manuals, the gcc manual comes in Texinfo format, which
allows producing both the info files (accessible via emacs in
info-mode, or directly with the info program) and the dvi-file for a
printed manual. The Free Software Foundation also sells bound copies
of manuals.
Here is the top node of the info file:
File: gcc.info, Node: Top, Next: Copying, Up: (DIR)
