SIZE(1)                              SysV                              SIZE(1)



NAME
     size - print section sizes in bytes of common object files

SYNOPSIS
     size [-n] [-f] [-o] [-x] [-V] files

DESCRIPTION
     size produces section size information in bytes for each loaded section
     in the common object files.  The size of the text, data, and bss
     (uninitialized data) sections is printed, as well as the sum of the sizes
     of these sections.  If an archive file is input to the size command the
     information for all archive members is displayed.

OPTIONS
     -n        Includes NOLOAD sections in the size.

     -f        Produces full output, that is, it prints the size of every
               loaded section, followed by the section name in parentheses.

     -o        Prints numbers in octal, rather than decimal.

     -x        Prints numbers in hexadecimal, rather than decimal.

     -V        Supplies version information.

CAVEAT
     Since the size of bss sections is not known until link-edit time, the
     size command will not give the true total size of pre-linked objects.

DIAGNOSTICS
     size:  name:  cannot open
          if name cannot be read.

     size:  name:  bad magic
          if name is not an appropriate common object file.
