NAME
0a, 1a, 2a, 5a, 6a, 7a, 8a, ka, qa, va - assemblers
SYNOPSIS
2a [ option ... ] [ name ... ]
etc.
DESCRIPTION
These programs assemble the named files into object files for the cor‐
responding architectures; see 2c(1) for the correspondence between an
architecture and the character (1, 2, etc.) that specifies it. The as‐
semblers handle the most common C preprocessor directives and the asso‐
ciated command-line options -D and -I. Other options are:
-o obj Place output in file obj (allowed only if there is just one in‐
put file). Default is to take the last element of the input
path name, strip any trailing .s, and append .O, where O is
first letter of the assembler's name.
FILES
The directory /sys/include is searched for include files after machine-
dependent files in /$objtype/include.
SOURCE
/sys/src/cmd/2a, etc.
