But you say that those 1256 bytes are "documentation".

Without reading it. Just because you are you of course. And
can't be contradicted by anyone and starts shouting when you ran out of 
arguments since you do not know what you are talking about:

You haven't even READ the document you cite!

I am saying that those bytes are just not by any means part of any 
documentation, i.e. explaining in a human readable form the workings of 
the code its trying to document.

You pointed to that link in the context where I just said that gcc 
overwhelms the reader with tons of code with absolutely no technical 
documentatiobn, so you IMPLIED that that link was a documentation!

And no amount of shouting will hide that from anyone.

The book of Chris Fraser and Dave Hanson *IS* a full technical 
documentation. Just see the difference and when you do not know what you 
are talking about keep your mouth shut.

Thanks
