To strip symbol and debug hunks from load files.
SSPPEECCIIFFIICCAATTIIOONN
SSttrriipp removes all symbol and debug hunks from binary load
files, i.e., executables. These hunks supplies informa
tion used by, for example, symbolic debuggers, but they
are not loaded by the _A_m_i_g_a_D_O_S loader. The size of a load
file can often be reduced dramatically by removing them.
SSttrriipp accepts the following arguments:
FFIILLEE The load file to be stripped.
TTOO The stripped version of the load file. If the TTOO
option isn't used, SSttrriipp will replace the original
file with the stripped output. If a directory is
given as the TTOO argument, the stripped output will
be written to that directory with the _s_a_m_e name as
the original file.
QQUUIIEETT tells SSttrriipp to keep its mouth shut unless something
goes awry.
KKEEEEPP tells SSttrriipp to keep the original unstripped version
with a _._o_r_i_g extension. This will only happen if no
destination _n_a_m_e was given and the file was
changed.
The stripped output is given the same protection flags and
comment, if applicable, as the original file, except that
the archived flag is cleared.
Any hardlinks to the original file will be broken if the
original file is replaced.
The current version of SSttrriipp refuses to strip overlaid
load files.
