Hello folks,
I have a suggestion for a minor change to the gcc driver. Currently, the gcc driver
recognizes .S as assembly to be preprocessed and .s as assembly not to be
preprocessed. Not knowing a lot about Unix, I presume this follows Unix convention.
But the convention in the DOS/Windows world is to use the .asm extension for
assembly files. Would the maintainers be receptive to a patch that recognizes .asm
as an assembly file like .S extension currently is?
Mark
