NAME

strip − strip object file

SYNOPSIS

strip [ −t ] [ name ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

Strip removes the symbol table and relocation bits ordinarily attached to the output of the assembler and loader.  This is useful to save space after a program has been debugged.  The effect of strip is the the same as use of the −s option of ld.  The −t option of strip can be used to remove text and data segments leaving only the symbol table.  This can be used when an executable program is not needed, i.e.  for the system namelist.
