 Assuming you have a powerpc compiler available you can use the -S
 option to produce assembly listings.

With gcc add -fverbose-asm for more info.

For a general background, look at something much simpler than ppc,
even if you don't write/run any code.

 True but a well aged Shiraz goes better with them than the cup of tea.
