Release 1 of GCCSDK 4.1.1 core kit contains all the necessary starter's documentation accessible via !GCC.!Help. Please have a look: <URL:http://www.riscos.info/downloads/gccsdk/gcc-4.1.1-release-1b/> Not only documentation on GCC and binutils but also all the various RISC OS specific tools are supplied (including ChangeLog files for those wanting to know what has been fixed) and migration notes for updating GCCSDK 3.x projects. I think it would be wrong to point GCCSDK users into our source tree and I don't think we're doing that. Wiki can help elaborate on the usage of GCCSDK. All IMHO of course.
