DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN GNU ssttrriipp discards all symbols from the object files _o_b_j_- _f_i_l_e. The list of object files may include archives. At least one object file must be given. ssttrriipp modifies the files named in its argument, rather than writing modified copies under different names. OOPPTTIIOONNSS --FF _b_f_d_n_a_m_e ----ttaarrggeett==_b_f_d_n_a_m_e Treat the original _o_b_j_f_i_l_e as a file with the object code format _b_f_d_n_a_m_e, and rewrite it in the same format. ----hheellpp Show a summary of the options to ssttrriipp and exit. --II _b_f_d_n_a_m_e ----iinnppuutt--ttaarrggeett==_b_f_d_n_a_m_e Treat the original _o_b_j_f_i_l_e as a file with the object code format _b_f_d_n_a_m_e. --OO _b_f_d_n_a_m_e ----oouuttppuutt--ttaarrggeett==_b_f_d_n_a_m_e Replace _o_b_j_f_i_l_e with a file in the output format _b_f_d_n_a_m_e. --ss ----ssttrriipp--aallll Remove all symbols. cygnus support 5 November 1991 1 strip(1) GNU Development Tools strip(1) --SS --gg ----ssttrriipp--ddeebbuugg Remove debugging symbols only. --xx ----ddiissccaarrdd--aallll Remove non-global symbols. --XX ----ddiissccaarrdd--llooccaallss Remove compiler-generated local symbols.
