.... Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. | will give a
real vertical bar. \*(C+ will give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to
do unbreakable dashes and therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C'
expand to `' in nroff, nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

If the F register is turned on, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.Sh), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

For nroff, turn off justification. Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
way too many mistakes in technical documents.

Title "STRIP 1"
\fBstrip modifies the files named in its argument, rather than writing modified copies under different names.
0
Treat the original objfile as a file with the object code format bfdname, and rewrite it in the same format.
0
Treat the original objfile as a file with the object code format bfdname.
0
Replace objfile with a file in the output format bfdname.
0
Remove any section named sectionname from the output file. This option may be given more than once. Note that using this option inappropriately may make the output file unusable.
0
Remove all symbols.
0
Remove debugging symbols only.
0
When stripping symbols, keep symbol symbolname even if it would normally be stripped. This option may be given more than once.
0
Remove symbol symbolname from the source file. This option may be given more than once, and may be combined with strip options other than \fB-K.
0
Preserve the access and modification dates of the file.
0
Permit regular expressions in symbolnames used in other command line options. The question mark (?), asterisk (*), backslash (\e) and square brackets ([]) operators can be used anywhere in the symbol name. If the first character of the symbol name is the exclamation point (!) then the sense of the switch is reversed for that symbol. For example: .Sp .Vb 1 -w -K !foo -K fo* .Ve .Sp would cause strip to only keep symbols that start with the letters \*(L"fo\*(R", but to discard the symbol \*(L"foo\*(R".
0
Remove non-global symbols.
0
Remove compiler-generated local symbols. (These usually start with L or ..)
.Sp Note---the choice of \*(C`.dbg\*(C' as an extension for the debug info file is arbitrary. Also the \*(C`--only-keep-debug\*(C' step is optional. You could instead do this:
0 Item "1.<Copy foo to foo.full>" Item "1.<Run strip --strip-debug foo>" Item "1.<Run objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=foo.full foo>"
.Sp i.e., the file pointed to by the --add-gnu-debuglink can be the full executable. It does not have to be a file created by the \fB--only-keep-debug switch. .Sp Note---this switch is only intended for use on fully linked files. It does not make sense to use it on object files where the debugging information may be incomplete. Besides the gnu_debuglink feature currently only supports the presence of one filename containing debugging information, not multiple filenames on a one-per-object-file basis.
0
Show the version number for strip.
0
Verbose output: list all object files modified. In the case of archives, strip -v lists all members of the archive.
