NAME

       GAC - The GAP Compiler

SYNOPSIS

          gac [-c|-d] [-o <output>] {-f<option>} <input>...

DESCRIPTION

       GAC   compiles  the  input  files.   Input files  must be GAP  source code (suffix '.g' or
       '.gap'),  C source code (suffix '.c'),  or compiled  code files (suffix '.o').

       -c     Compiles the input files to statically loadable object files, which must be  linked
              together to a new kernel.

       -d     Compiles  the input files to dynamically loadable object files, which can be loaded
              by a kernel at runtime.

       -C     Only compiles the input files to C code, which will require compilation and linking
              to be usable.

       -r     Statically  compiled files will be assumed to be given by pathnames relative to the
              GAP root, and will be compiled for automatic loading when files are sought relative
              to the GAP root.

       -o <output>
              Name the output file <output>.

       -save-temps
              Tells 'gac' to not delete any intermediate files

       -p <option>
              Pass the option  <option> to  the C compiler.

       -P <option>
              Pass the option  <option> to  the C linker.

       -L <option>
              Tells  'gac'  to  pass  the  option   <option> to the C linker when linking dynamic
              modules. Contrary to -P the option is appended at the end of the link command after
              the .o files to link.
