I have a report from a new user of the CDT that he expected to find some information in the Help pages about compiler options, and he found nothing.

If he had searched for Compiler settings, he might have found something, but gcc in its documentation always refers to its switched as "options".

I think that there should be an index entry that redirects searches for "compiler options" to "see compiler settings."  Or however that might be accomplished best.

Reproducible: Always
