GCC documentation

["Sanjay Bhatia" <sb at raplix dot com>]

Hi,

I love GCC and want to thank you for this most excellent effort on your
part to make a *good* C compiler available to everyone.

I have a question about the documentation.  I found it very useful and
it's very well organized.  I am interested in finding out more about how
GCC works in general.  I would like to find out how it generates code
from start to finish and what is  executable file looks like or
contains.  Can you please point me to this information?  If you know of
something that is not GCC specific, but applicable to the C programming
language in general, that will work too.  I can buy the books or look up
info. on the net.

I know I could go through the source code to find this information, but
I'd also like to know of other sources.

Thanks,
sb
