NM(1)                                                                    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 argu-
       ment 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.
