I'm not a 'C' programmer, i.e. while I've used 'C' on PC's, and larger, for 8-bit microcontrollers I vastly prefer ASM.

Recently, I've taken a new interest in SDCC, however, as it seems to be the compiler of choice for a wide range of MCU's. Mainly, of course, it's not a commercial product, hence, as a user-supported tool, it will always be kept up-to-date.

I'm persuaded that the "smart" way to get "into" SDCC is to learn its assembler, linker, and simulator and become proficient in their use before trying to use the compiler. That way, "fixing" the things I don't like in what the compiler does, or, in fact, even recognizing them, will be easier.

I've just downloaded the last source package, and that only because the assembler, linker, and simulator doc's are in the source package and not in the user package. However, I can't find the files that describe the syntax, pseudo-op's, etc.

Do any of you 'C' experts know which files contain the necessary information?
