How to see the intermediate code on compilation of a C program?

I want to see the intermediate code generated during the compilation of a C program. Using the -S flag, the object code is generated but is there anything to see the .i files, called as intermediate code.

    If this is gcc* you also need -save-temps after -S

    gcc -S -save-temps file.cpp would make file.i

    * By default, gcc is installed and linked to cc. If you install another C Compiler, cc will link to that.
