Re: Can I Install GPC on MacOS10.12?

My gpc is using this specs file by default:

/Developer/Pascal/gpc346u4/lib/gcc/i386-apple-darwin10/3.4.6/specs

> First start off by seeing what the current built-in specs look like with gpc -dumpspecs

gpc -dumpspecs > specs

produces a local specs file identical to the default one, and containing 
exactly this line, even unto the space before "as".

I can change the default specs file to point to my GNU assembler, or the 
new file, or a small file containing only the above, which is nice.

That works. Thank you.

By the way: I tried to move the clang assembler and insert a symbolic 
link to the GNU assembler in its place. But OS 10.12.6 won't let me do 
anything to /usr/bin/as. Not even as root.

Best Wishes, Kevan
