Yes, they work, but there IS a lot of air.
I am really looking for a nice, tight, assembler language printout; you
know, the C++ line followed by the generated code. This appears in the .s
file (I think) but you really have to sort through to find each statement's
code. I explored all the files generated by the -save-temps flag.
I seem to recall years ago getting a listing that showed the include file
data right after the include statement. This might have been C.

I had figured one of the debugging options would do it, but I haven't found
one that does. It looked from the descrioption in the manual that -dD, -dM,
etc. had promise, but they didn't do what I want. I did get a hierarchical
listing of the includes, which is nice. Anyway, it's a struggle at this
point to try and understand what code is generated by the compiler.
Thanks for asking.
