There are much more recent archived copies like https://web.archive.org/web/20181113021321/http://www.network-theory.co.uk/gcc/intro/ I'm not sure it's worth updating the link to an archived copy of that page, because all the links for buying a PDF or printed copy are probably dead now anyway. We could link to https://archive.org/details/B-001-002-835 instead, or to the archived HTML version. The newest capture of the HTML version seems to be this, although I didn't check that all pages are archived: https://web.archive.org/web/20181206025406/http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/gccintro/ My preference would be to link to that latter. Although it's quite dated, the sections on basic compilation and compiler flags are still relevant for beginners. Gerald?
