| The subject says it all.
| My site does NOT have a working TEX system, and I'm very tired
| of trying to get the archived TEX systems to work on my PC.
| 
| In short, I give up.  
| 
| All I want is the documentation for GCC either as an ASCII file
| or as a postscript file.
| I need all of the documentation, too.  The installation stuff,
| anything on the graphics libraries, the preprocessor, the compiler,
| the assembler, in short, everything.
| 
| Can anyone help me?
| please respond by e-mail before sending piles of documents.
| Thanks in advance.

I could mail you our info files if you want.  I'm mailing this to the
list, because this is a frequent request.

If you have GNU emacs at your site, you can make the info files by
editing the gcc.texi file, and doing M-x texinfo-format-buffer.  Or if
you have the texinfo package, you can use the makeinfo program to
produce the info files (the Makefile has a rule to do this).  Once you
have the info files, it is a trival matter to strip the header, and to
convert the '^_' to a formfeed to seperate pages.

Another possibility if you have {n,t}roff (you preumably don't have
groff built yet because that is written in c++) is to use the GNU
texi2roff program to convert gcc.texi to nroff input, and format it
that way.
