For any given input file, the file name suffix determines what kind of
compilation is done.  The following kinds of input file names are supported:
.IP "\fIfile\fR\fB.mod\fR" 4
.IX Item "file.mod"
Modula\-2 implementation or program source files.  See the
\&\fB\-fmod=\fR option if you wish to compile a project which uses a
different source file extension.
.IP "\fIfile\fR\fB.def\fR" 4
.IX Item "file.def"
Modula\-2 definition module source files.  Definition modules are not
compiled separately, in \s-1GNU\s0 Modula\-2 definition modules are parsed as
required when program or implementation modules are compiled.  See the
\&\fB\-fdef=\fR option if you wish to compile a project which uses a
different source file extension.
.PP
You can specify more than one input file on the \fBgm2\fR command line,
.ie n .IP """\-g""" 4

can inspect and control executable.
.ie n .IP """\-I""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-I\fR" 4
.IX Item "-I"
used to specify the search path for definition and implementation
modules.  An example is:  \f(CW\*(C`gm2 \-g \-c \-I.:../../libs foo.mod\*(C'\fR.
If this option is not specified then the default path is added
which consists of the current directory followed by the appropriate
language dialect library directories.
.ie n .IP """\-fauto\-init""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fauto\-init\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fauto-init"
turns on auto initialization of pointers to \s-1NIL.\s0  Whenever a block is
created all pointers declared within this scope will have their
addresses assigned to \s-1NIL.\s0
.ie n .IP """\-fbounds""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fbounds\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fbounds"

.ie n .IP """\-fcase""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fcase\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fcase"
turns on compile time checking to check whether a \f(CW\*(C`CASE\*(C'\fR

.ie n .IP """\-fcpp""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fcpp\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fcpp"
preprocess the source with \fBcpp \-lang\-asm \-traditional\-cpp\fR
For further details about these options 
If \fB\-fcpp\fR is supplied then all definition modules and
implementation modules which are parsed will be prepossessed by
\&\fBcpp\fR.
.ie n .IP """\-fdebug\-builtins""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fdebug\-builtins\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fdebug-builtins"
call a real function, rather than the builtin equivalent.  This can
be useful for debugging parameter values to a builtin function as
it allows users to single step code into an intrinsic function.
.ie n .IP """\-fdef=""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fdef=\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fdef="
recognize the specified suffix as a definition module filename.
The default implementation and module filename suffix is \fI.def\fR.
If this option is used \s-1GNU\s0 Modula\-2 will still fall back to this
default if a requested definition module is not found.
.ie n .IP """\-fdump\-system\-exports""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fdump\-system\-exports\fR" 4

This is an internal command line option.
.ie n .IP """\-fexceptions""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fexceptions\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fexceptions"
turn on exception handling code.  By default this option is on.
Exception handling can be disabled by \fB\-fno\-exceptions\fR
and no references are made to the run time exception libraries.
.ie n .IP """\-fextended\-opaque""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fextended\-opaque\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fextended-opaque"
allows opaque types to be implemented as any type.  This is a \s-1GNU\s0
Modula\-2 extension and it requires that the implementation module
defining the opaque type is available so that it can be resolved when
compiling the module which imports the opaque type.
.ie n .IP """\-ffloatvalue""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-ffloatvalue\fR" 4

Array index checking can be disabled via \fB\-fno\-index\fR.
.ie n .IP """\-fiso""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fiso\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fiso"
turn on \s-1ISO\s0 standard features.  Currently this enables the \s-1ISO\s0
\&\f(CW\*(C`SYSTEM\*(C'\fR module and alters the default library search path so
that the \s-1ISO\s0 libraries are searched before the \s-1PIM\s0 libraries.  It also
effects the behavior of \f(CW\*(C`DIV\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`MOD\*(C'\fR operators.
.ie n .IP """\-flibs=""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-flibs=\fR" 4
.IX Item "-flibs="
modifies the default library search path.  The libraries supplied are:
m2pim, m2iso, m2min, m2log and m2cor.  These map onto the
Programming in Modula\-2 base libraries, \s-1ISO\s0 standard libraries, minimal
library support, Logitech compatible library and Programming in
Modula\-2 with coroutines.
Multiple libraries can be specified and are comma separated with precedence
going to the first in the list.  It is not necessary to use \-flibs=m2pim or
\&\-flibs=m2iso if you also specify \-fpim, \-fpim2, \-fpim3, \-fpim4 or
\&\-fiso.  Unless you are using \-flibs=m2min you should include m2pim as
the they provide the base modules which all other dialects utilize.
The option \fB\-fno\-libs=\-\fR disables the \fBgm2\fR driver from
modifying the search and library paths.
.ie n .IP """\-static\-libgm2""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-static\-libgm2\fR" 4
.IX Item "-static-libgm2"
On systems that provide the m2 runtimes as both shared and static libraries,

of generating \f(CW\*(C`nop\*(C'\fR instructions if necessary to ensure single
stepping precision over all code related keywords.  An example
of this is in termination of a list of nested \f(CW\*(C`IF\*(C'\fR statements
where multiple \f(CW\*(C`END\*(C'\fR keywords are mapped onto a sequence of
\&\f(CW\*(C`nop\*(C'\fR instructions.
.ie n .IP """\-fm2\-lower\-case""" 4

.ie n .IP """\-fm2\-whole\-program""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fm2\-whole\-program\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fm2-whole-program"
compile all implementation modules and program module at once.  Notice
that you need to take care if you are compiling different dialect
modules (particularly with the negative operands to modulus).  But
this option, when coupled together with \f(CW\*(C`\-O3\*(C'\fR, can deliver huge
performance improvements.
.ie n .IP """\-fmod=""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fmod=\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fmod="
recognize the specified suffix as implementation and module filenames.
The default implementation and module filename suffix is \fI.mod\fR.
If this option is used \s-1GNU\s0 Modula\-2 will still fall back to this
default if it needs to read an implementation module and the specified
suffixed filename does not exist.
.ie n .IP """\-fnil""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fnil\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fnil"

.ie n .IP """\-fpim""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fpim\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fpim"
turn on \s-1PIM\s0 standard features.  Currently this enables the \s-1PIM\s0
\&\f(CW\*(C`SYSTEM\*(C'\fR module and determines which identifiers are pervasive
(declared in the base module).  If no other \fB\-fpim[234]\fR switch is
used then division and modulus operators behave as defined in \s-1PIM4.\s0
.ie n .IP """\-fpim2""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fpim2\fR" 4
.IX Item "-fpim2"
turn on \s-1PIM\-2\s0 standard features.  Currently this removes \f(CW\*(C`SIZE\*(C'\fR
from being a pervasive identifier (declared in the base module).  It
places \f(CW\*(C`SIZE\*(C'\fR in the \f(CW\*(C`SYSTEM\*(C'\fR module.  It also effects the
behavior of \f(CW\*(C`DIV\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`MOD\*(C'\fR operators.
.ie n .IP """\-fpim3""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-fpim3\fR" 4

.IX Item "-fpthread"
link against the pthread library.  By default this option is on.  It
can be disabled by \fB\-fno\-pthread\fR.  \s-1GNU\s0 Modula\-2 uses the \s-1GCC\s0
pthread libraries to implement coroutines (see the \s-1SYSTEM\s0
implementation module).
.ie n .IP """\-frange""" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW\-frange\fR" 4

avoids the implicit copy inside the callee procedure.  \s-1GNU\s0 Modula\-2
will only allow unbounded parameters to be passed by reference if,
inside the callee procedure, they are not written to, no address is
calculated on the array and it is not passed as a \f(CW\*(C`VAR\*(C'\fR
parameter.  Note that it is possible to write code to break this
optimization, therefore this option should be used carefully.
For example it would be possible to take the address of an array, pass
the address and the array to a procedure, read from the array in
the procedure and write to the location using the address parameter.

.IX Item "-Wuninit-variable-checking=all,known,cond"
issue a warning if a variable is used before it is initialized.
The checking will only occur in the first basic block in each
procedure if \fBknown\fR is specified.  If \fBcond\fR or \fBall\fR
is specified then checking continues into conditional branches of the
flow graph.  All checking will stop when a procedure call is invoked
or the top of a loop is encountered.
The option \fB\-Wall\fR will turn on this flag with
\&\fB\-Wuninit\-variable\-checking=known\fR.
The \fB\-Wuninit\-variable\-checking=all\fR will increase compile time.
