So you really want to create your own compiler, you now that gcc actually does 
all what we need ? It scan/parse the code, then generate a abstract syntax 
tree and then use the back end specification to translate this tree into asm 
for this specific architecture.
	And this translation can do some optimisation. If you want more about gcc 
backend I think it's chapter 20 of its documentation.
