18 !!DESCRIPTION

21 __ranlib__ generates an index to the contents of an
22 archive and stores it in the archive. The index lists each
23 symbol defined by a member of an archive that is a
24 relocatable object file.
25
26
27 You may use __nm -s__ or __nm --print-armap__ to list
28 this index.

31 An archive with such an index speeds up linking to the
32 library and allows routines in the library to call each
33 other without regard to their placement in the
34 archive.

36
37 The GNU __ranlib__ program is another form
38 of GNU __ar__; running __ranlib__ is
39 completely equivalent to executing __ar
40 -s__.
