|
|
<p>We use the phrase <em>source program</em>, abbreviated <em>source</em>, to
|
|
describe the program input to one run of <code>as</code>. The program may
|
|
be in one or more files; how the source is partitioned into files
|
|
doesn’t change the meaning of the source.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The source program is a concatenation of the text in all the files, in the
|
|
order specified.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Each time you run <code>as</code> it assembles exactly one source
|
|
program. The source program is made up of one or more files.
|
|
(The standard input is also a file.)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You give <code>as</code> a command line that has zero or more input file
|
|
names. The input files are read (from left file name to right). A
|
|
command-line argument (in any position) that has no special meaning
|
|
is taken to be an input file name.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If you give <code>as</code> no file names it attempts to read one input file
|
|
from the <code>as</code> standard input, which is normally your terminal. You
|
|
may have to type <tt class="key">ctl-D</tt> to tell <code>as</code> there is no more program
|
|
to assemble.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Use ‘<samp>--</samp>’ if you need to explicitly name the standard input file
|
|
in your command line.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If the source is empty, <code>as</code> produces a small, empty object
|
|
file.
|
|

<a name="index-input-file-linenumbers"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-line-numbers_002c-in-input-files"></a>
|
|
<p>There are two ways of locating a line in the input file (or files) and
|
|
either may be used in reporting error messages. One way refers to a line
|
|
number in a physical file; the other refers to a line number in a
|
|
“logical” file. See <a href="Errors.html#Errors">Error and Warning Messages</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><em>Physical files</em> are those files named in the command line given
|
|
to <code>as</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><em>Logical files</em> are simply names declared explicitly by assembler
|
|
directives; they bear no relation to physical files. Logical file names help
|
|
error messages reflect the original source file, when <code>as</code> source
|
|
is itself synthesized from other files. <code>as</code> understands the
|
|
‘<samp>#</samp>’ directives emitted by the <code>gcc</code> preprocessor. See also
|
|
<a href="File.html#File"><code>.file</code></a>.
