| <p><a name="index-g_t_002do-86"></a><a name="index-naming-object-file-87"></a><a name="index-object-file-name-88"></a>There is always one object file output when you run <samp><span class="command">as</span></samp>. By |
| default it has the name <samp><span class="file">a.out</span></samp>. |
| You use this option (which takes exactly one filename) to give the |
| object file a different name. |
| |
| <p>Whatever the object file is called, <samp><span class="command">as</span></samp> overwrites any |
| existing file of the same name. |
