Greetings,

I am a neophyte when it comes to the GCC and G++ compiler(s).  I am
trying to find comprehensive documentation on the compile error
messages I see when I compile a program.  Since I do not expect to
have clean code everytime I compile a program, I would like to know if
there is any material that will explain my errors in more detail than
the messages actually sent to STDERR?

I have looked at the MAN pages, but they themselves say they are not
very complete anymore.  I have tried to use INFO, but have not found
the right node, if any exists, with the compiler error messages
listed.

If possible, please send any comments via e-mail for:
tom.porter@interramp.com
