cpp, the GNU preprocessor  

cpp merges in the #include files, expands all macros definitions, and processes the #ifdef sections. To see the output of cpp, invoke GCC with the -E option, and the preprocessed file will be printed on stdout.

There are two convenient options to assemble handwritten files that require C-style preprocessing. Both options depend on using the compiler driver program, gcc, instead of calling the assembler directly.
