I have seen in the gcc info documentation references to the CTOR and
DTOR lists which allow for auto-init and auto-shutdown functions.  The
docs do not, however, tell me how to invoke these capabilities in my C
modules.  Is anyone familiar with this stuff?

I assume some sort of linker help is necessary so maybe I should be
examining gnu-ld?

If I have an init function in a .c file, how do I get it to be
executed before main?

thanks,
gray

p.s. I am running gcc 2.3.3.
