-The :program:`llvm-nm` utility lists the names of symbols from the LLVM bitcode
-files, object files, or :program:`ar` archives containing them, named on the
-command line.  Each symbol is listed along with some simple information about
-its provenance.  If no filename is specified, *a.out* is used as the input.
-If *-* is used as a filename, :program:`llvm-nm` will read a file from its
-standard input stream.

 :program:`llvm-nm`'s default output format is the traditional BSD :program:`nm`
-output format.  Each such output record consists of an (optional) 8-digit
+output format. Each such output record consists of an (optional) 8-digit
 hexadecimal address, followed by a type code character, followed by a name, for
-each symbol.  One record is printed per line; fields are separated by spaces.
