     _\bN_\bm prints the name list (symbol table) of each object _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be
     in the argument list.  If an argument is an archive, a list-
     ing for each object file in the archive will be produced.
     If no _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be is given, the symbols in "a.out" are listed.

     Each symbol name is preceded by its value (blanks if unde-
     fined) and one of the letters U\bU (undefined), A\bA (absolute), T\bT
     (text segment symbol), D\bD (data segment symbol), B\bB (bss seg-
     ment symbol), C\bC (common symbol), f\bf file name, or -\b- for
     debugger symbol table entries (see -\b-a\ba below).  If the symbol
     is local (non-external) the type letter is in lower case.
     The output is sorted alphabetically.

     Options are:

     -\b-a\ba   Print symbol table entries inserted for use by
          debuggers.

     -\b-g\bg   Print only global (external) symbols.

     -\b-n\bn   Sort numerically rather than alphabetically.

     -\b-o\bo   Prepend file or archive element name to each output
          line rather than only once.

     -\b-p\bp   Don't sort; print in symbol-table order.

     -\b-r\br   Sort in reverse order.

     -\b-u\bu   Print only undefined symbols.
