4161f28255Scgd.Sh DESCRIPTION
4261f28255ScgdThe
431ebd6d74Slukem.Nm
4461f28255Scgdutility uses
4561f28255Scgd.Xr nm 1
4661f28255Scgdto determine interdependencies in the list of object files
4761f28255Scgdspecified on the command line.
481ebd6d74Slukem.Nm
4961f28255Scgdoutputs a list of file names where the first file contains a symbol
5061f28255Scgdwhich is defined by the second file.
5161f28255Scgd.Pp
5261f28255ScgdThe output is normally used with
5361f28255Scgd.Xr tsort 1
5461f28255Scgdwhen a library is created to determine the optimum ordering of the
5561f28255Scgdobject modules so that all references may be resolved in a single
5661f28255Scgdpass of the loader.
