| 25 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 26 | .I Orderlist | |
| 27 | is a file containing symbols to be found in symbolfile, | |
| 28 | 1 symbol per line. | |
| 29 | .PP | |
| 30 | .I Symbolfile | |
| 31 | is updated in place to put the requested symbols first | |
| 32 | in the symbol table, in the order specified. This is done | |
| 33 | by swapping the old symbols in the required spots with the | |
| 34 | new ones. If all of the order symbols are not found, an | |
| 35 | error is generated. | |
| 36 | .PP | |
| 37 | This program was specifically designed to cut down on the | |
| 38 | overhead of getting symbols from /vmunix. | |
