.SH NAME
gmqcc \- A Quake C compiler which tries to reduce suckiness.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B gmqcc
[\fIOPTIONS\fR] [\fIfiles...\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Traditionally, a QC compiler reads the file \fIprogs.src\fR which
in its first line contains the output filename, and the rest is a
list of QC source files that are to be compiled in order.
\fBgmqcc\fR optionally takes options to specify the output and
input files on the commandline, and also accepts assembly files.
.SH OPTIONS
\fBgmqcc\fR mostly tries to mimick gcc's commandline handling, though
there are also traditional long-options available.
.TP
.B "-h, --help"
Show a usage message and exit.
.TP
.BI "-o, --output=" filename
Specify the output filename. Defaults to progs.dat. This will overwrite
the output file listed in a \fIprogs.src\fR file in case such a file is used.
.TP
.BI "-O" n
Specify the optimization level, similar to gcc.
.TP
.BI "-a" filename
Append the specified files to the list of files to assemble using the QC-Assembler.
.TP
.BI "-s" filename
Append the specified file which is to be interpreted as a \fIprogs.src\fR file.
.TP
.BI "-std=" standard
Use the specified standard for parsing QC code. The following standards are available:
.IR gmqcc , qcc , fteqcc
.TP
.BI -W warning "\fR, " "" -Wno- warning
Enable or disable a warning.
.TP
.B -Wall
Enable all warnings. Overrides preceding -W parameters.
.TP
.B -fdarkplaces-string-table-bug
Patch the output file to work around a string-table bug in certain darkplaces versions.
.TP
.B -fomit-nullbytes
Changes the output format to be more efficient. Requires a patched engine. See the
proposal for a better file structure in the gmqcc source tree.
