@cindex PowerPC architectures
The PowerPC chip family includes several successive levels, using the same
core instruction set, but including a few additional instructions at
each level. There are exceptions to this however. For details on what

@cindex directives for PowerPC
@cindex PowerPC directives
A number of assembler directives are available for PowerPC. The
following table is far from complete.
@table @code
@item .machine "string"
This directive allows you to change the machine for which code is
generated. @code{"string"} may be any of the -m cpu selection options
(without the -m) enclosed in double quotes, @code{"push"}, or
@code{"pop"}. @code{.machine "push"} saves the currently selected
cpu, which may be restored with @code{.machine "pop"}.

@node PowerPC-Chars
@subsection Special Characters
@cindex line comment character, PowerPC
@cindex PowerPC line comment character
The presence of a @samp{#} on a line indicates the start of a comment
that extends to the end of the current line.
If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line then the whole
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line could also be
a logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).
If the assembler has been configured for the ppc-*-solaris* target
then the @samp{!} character also acts as a line comment character.
This can be disabled via the @option{-mno-solaris} command line
option.
@cindex line separator, PowerPC
@cindex statement separator, PowerPC
@cindex PowerPC line separator
The @samp{;} character can be used to separate statements on the same
line.
