Re: Naked Functions

["André Wagner" <andre@syspoint.com.br>]

Hi,

I've read some time ago about how writing a full programm without the 
headers. It's useful for write a boot sector for example, but I'm not sure 
for functions. But you can use it as a start point...

Just compile your program like this:

gcc -c test.c
ld -o test -Ttext 0x0 -e main test.o
objcopy -R .note -R .comment -S -O binary test test.bin

HTH,

André
