- One future enhancement is to (optionally) display debugger symbols.
- If anyone has any information about the layout of the C$$DEBUG
- area, I can get to work.
-
- Lots of fun!

- Arthur NM - Usage Notes
- =======================
-
- Copyright 1989 Colin R. Smale
-
- NM is a tool to examine the symbol table of object files and object
- libraries. The names and attributes of all symbols are displayed.
-
- Usage:
- nm [-a] [-n] file ...
-
- Options:
- -a uses alphanumeric sort (default)
- -n symbols are sorted numerically by value
-
- Options can be interspersed with filenames; they take effect
- as from that point in the list of files.
-
- If a file is a library created by LibFile and ObjLib, the information
- is displayed for each module contained in the library.
-
- Output:
- One symbol is displayed on each line. The fields are:
-
- Symbol value - normally the address relative to an area
- for external references, this field is blank
-
- Flags - the letters have the following meanings:
- l local symbol
- e external reference
- d global definition
- w external reference is weak
- s global definition is strong
- a symbol is absolute
- @ linker will use case-insensitive matching
- c common block
-
- Symbol name
-
- Area name - displayed between parentheses if symbol is relative
-
- For more information, refer to the Acorn documentation on AOF and ALF
- available from the SID database.
-
- Errors will occur if:
- - the file is not a chunk file
- - the file does not contain AOF object
-
- Bugs:
- As usual, none known. The error checking could do with improvement.
-
- If you find a problem or if you have a suggestion for improvement,
- please contact the author:
