NM(1)

NAME
nm - print name list

SYNOPSIS
nm [ -gnopru ] [ file ... ]

DESCRIPTION
Nm prints the name list (symbol table) of each object file in the argument list. If an argument is an archive, a listing for each object file in the archive will be produced. If no file is given, the symbols in `a.out' are listed.

Each symbol name is preceded by its value (blanks if undefined) and one of the letters U (undefined), A (absolute), T (text segment symbol), D (data segment symbol), B (bss segment symbol), or C (common symbol). If the symbol is local (non-external) the type letter is in lower case. The output is sorted alphabetically.

Options are:

-g  Print only global (external) symbols.

-n  Sort numerically rather than alphabetically.

-o  Prepend file or archive element name to each output line rather than only once.

-p  Don't sort; print in symbol-table order.

-r  Sort in reverse order.

-u  Print only undefined symbols.
