The GNAT User‘s Guide used to have an introduction to getting from source
to executable. The relevant sections were, or are, instructive; they go
beyond just mentioning the knobs and switches of the current tool chain.
They explain compiling, binding, and linking so as to make you understand
what you are doing when you need a compiler for producing your executable.

I thought that the time spent reading this well written guide was both
helpful and enjoyable. Understanding translation is part of becoming a
successful apprentice.
