@cindex name length
@sc{gnu} @command{ar} can maintain archives whose members have names of any
table. If an archive lacks the table, another form of @command{ar} called
@command{ranlib} can be used to add just the table.
+@cindex thin archives
+@sc{gnu} @command{ar} can optionally create a @emph{thin} archive,
+which contains a symbol index and references to the original copies
+of the member files of the archives. Such an archive is useful
+for building libraries for use within a local build, where the
+relocatable objects are expected to remain available, and copying the
+contents of each object would only waste time and space. Thin archives
+are also @emph{flattened}, so that adding one or more archives to a
+thin archive will add the elements of the nested archive individually.
+The paths to the elements of the archive are stored relative to the
+archive itself.

If no modifiers are used with @code{m}, any members you name in the
@var{member} arguments are moved to the @emph{end} of the archive;
@samp{r} to indicate whether the file was appended (no old member
deleted) or replaced.
+@item s
+@cindex ranlib
+Add an index to the archive, or update it if it already exists. Note
+this command is an exception to the rule that there can only be one
+command letter, as it is possible to use it as either a command or a
+modifier. In either case it does the same thing.
+
@item t
@cindex contents of archive
Display a @emph{table} listing the contents of @var{archive}, or those
If you do not specify a @var{member}, all files in the archive
are extracted.
+Files cannot be extracted from a thin archive.

+@item --help
+Displays the list of command line options supported by @command{ar}
+and then exits.
+
+@item --version
+Displays the version information of @command{ar} and then exits.
+
@end table
A number of modifiers (@var{mod}) may immediately follow the @var{p}
issued unless you specify in advance that you expect to create it, by
using this modifier.
+@item D
+@cindex deterministic archives
+Operate in @emph{deterministic} mode. When adding files and the archive
+index use zero for UIDs, GIDs, timestamps, and use consistent file modes
+for all files. When this option is used, if @command{ar} is used with
+identical options and identical input files, multiple runs will create
+identical output files regardless of the input files' owners, groups,
+file modes, or modification times.
+
@item f
Truncate names in the archive. @sc{gnu} @command{ar} will normally permit file
names of any length. This will cause it to create archives which are

@samp{ranlib} on the archive.

+@cindex creating thin archive
+Make the specified @var{archive} a @emph{thin} archive. If it already

+For PE format files this indicates that the symbol is in a section

+This is similar to the information provided by the @samp{nm} program,

+types. One looks like this:
+
+@smallexample
+[ 4](sec 3)(fl 0x00)(ty 0)(scl 3) (nx 1) 0x00000000 .bss
+[ 6](sec 1)(fl 0x00)(ty 0)(scl 2) (nx 0) 0x00000000 fred
+@end smallexample
+
+where the number inside the square brackets is the number of the entry
+in the symbol table, the @var{sec} number is the section number, the
+@var{fl} value are the symbol's flag bits, the @var{ty} number is the
+symbol's type, the @var{scl} number is the symbol's storage class and
+the @var{nx} value is the number of auxilary entries associated with
+the symbol. The last two fields are the symbol's value and its name.
+
+The other common output format, usually seen with ELF based files,
+looks like this:
+
+@smallexample
+00000000 l d .bss 00000000 .bss
+00000000 g .text 00000000 fred
+@end smallexample
+
+Here the first number is the symbol's value (sometimes refered to as
+its address). The next field is actually a set of characters and
+spaces indicating the flag bits that are set on the symbol. These
+characters are described below. Next is the section with which the
+symbol is associated or @emph{*ABS*} if the section is absolute (ie
+not connected with any section), or @emph{*UND*} if the section is
+referenced in the file being dumped, but not defined there.
+
+After the section name comes another field, a number, which for common
+symbols is the alignment and for other symbol is the size. Finally
+the symbol's name is displayed.
+
+The flag characters are divided into 7 groups as follows:
+@table @code
+@item l
+@itemx g
+@itemx u
+@itemx !
+The symbol is a local (l), global (g), unique global (u), neither
+global nor local (a space) or both global and local (!). A
+symbol can be neither local or global for a variety of reasons, e.g.,
+because it is used for debugging, but it is probably an indication of
+a bug if it is ever both local and global. Unique global symbols are
+a GNU extension to the standard set of ELF symbol bindings. For such
+a symbol the dynamic linker will make sure that in the entire process
+there is just one symbol with this name and type in use.
+
+@item w
+The symbol is weak (w) or strong (a space).
+
+@item C
+The symbol denotes a constructor (C) or an ordinary symbol (a space).
+
+@item W
+The symbol is a warning (W) or a normal symbol (a space). A warning
+symbol's name is a message to be displayed if the symbol following the
+warning symbol is ever referenced.
+
+@item I
+@item i
+The symbol is an indirect reference to another symbol (I), a function
+to be evaluated during reloc processing (i) or a normal symbol (a
+space).
+
+@item d
+@itemx D
+The symbol is a debugging symbol (d) or a dynamic symbol (D) or a
+normal symbol (a space).
+
+@item F
+@item f
+@item O
+The symbol is the name of a function (F) or a file (f) or an object

+
+@command{windmc} reads message definitions from an input file (.mc) and
+translate them into a set of output files. The output files may be of
+four kinds:
+
+@table @code
+@item h
+A C header file containing the message definitions.
+
+@item rc
+A resource file compilable by the @command{windres} tool.
+
+@item bin
+One or more binary files containing the resource data for a specific
+message language.
+
+@item dbg
+A C include file that maps message id's to their symbolic name.
+@end table
+
+The exact description of these different formats is available in
+documentation from Microsoft.
+
+When @command{windmc} converts from the @code{mc} format to the @code{bin}
+format, @code{rc}, @code{h}, and optional @code{dbg} it is acting like the

+@command{elfedit} updates the ELF header of ELF files which have
+the matching ELF machine and file types. The options control how and
+which fields in the ELF header should be updated.
+
+@var{elffile}@dots{} are the ELF files to be updated. 32-bit and
+64-bit ELF files are supported, as are archives containing ELF files.

+The supported ELF machine types are, @var{L1OM} and @var{x86-64}.
+
+@itemx --output-mach=@var{machine}
+Change the ELF machine type in the ELF header to @var{machine}. The
+supported ELF machine types are the same as @option{--input-mach}.
+
+@itemx --input-type=@var{type}
+Set the matching input ELF file type to @var{type}. If
+@option{--input-type} isn't specified, it will match any ELF file types.
+
+The supported ELF file types are, @var{rel}, @var{exec} and @var{dyn}.
+
+@itemx --output-type=@var{type}
