You shouldn't read too much into the assembly output from any particular compiler (except maybe dmr's for the PDP-11), but the de facto standard command line option "-S" will cause a *nix compiler to generate a ".s" file containing assembly rather than a binary.

Wow, I didn't know about -S option, thanks for the tip! I know it may not be optimal assmbly code, but that's still interesting code to read.
