.SH DESCRIPTION
15 
These programs
16 
assemble the named files into object files
17 
for the corresponding architectures; see
18 
.IR 8c (1)
19 
for the correspondence between an architecture and the character
20 
.RB ( 6 ,
21 
.RB 8 ,
22 
etc.) that specifies it.
23 
The assemblers handle the most common C preprocessor directives and the associated
24 
command-line options
25 
.BR -D
26 
and
27 
.BR -I .
28 
Other options are:
29 
.TP
30 
.BI -o " obj"
31 
Place output in file
32 
.I obj
33 
(allowed only if there is just one input file).
34 
Default is to take the last element of the input path name,
35 
strip any trailing
36 
.BR .s ,
37 
and append
38 
.RI . O ,
39 
where
40 
.I O
41 
is first letter of the assembler's name.
42 
.SH FILES
43 
The directory
44 
.B /sys/include
45 
is searched for include files after
46 
machine-dependent files in
47 
.BR /$objtype/include .
48 
.SH SOURCE
