<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
The <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT> <B>size</B> utility lists the section sizes and the total
size for each of the binary files <I>objfile</I> on its argument list.
By default, one line of output is generated for each file or each
module if the file is an archive.
<P>
<I>objfile</I>... are the files to be examined. If none are
specified, the file <TT>&quot;a.out&quot;</TT> will be used instead.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
The command-line options have the following meanings:
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="1"><B>-A</B><DD>
<DT id="2"><B>-B</B><DD>
<DT id="3"><B>-G</B><DD>
<DT id="4"><B>--format=</B><I>compatibility</I><DD>
Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT>
<B>size</B> resembles output from System V <B>size</B> (using <B>-A</B>,
or <B>--format=sysv</B>), or Berkeley <B>size</B> (using <B>-B</B>, or
<B>--format=berkeley</B>). The default is the one-line format similar to
Berkeley's. Alternatively, you can choose the <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT> format output
(using <B>-G</B>, or <B>--format=gnu</B>), this is similar to
Berkeley's output format, but sizes are counted differently.
<P>
Here is an example of the Berkeley (default) format of output from
<B>size</B>:
<P>
<PRE>
$ size --format=Berkeley ranlib size
text data bss dec hex filename
294880 81920 11592 388392 5ed28 ranlib
294880 81920 11888 388688 5ee50 size
</PRE>
<P>
The Berkeley style output counts read only data in the <TT>&quot;text&quot;</TT>
column, not in the <TT>&quot;data&quot;</TT> column, the <TT>&quot;dec&quot;</TT> and <TT>&quot;hex&quot;</TT>
columns both display the sum of the <TT>&quot;text&quot;</TT>, <TT>&quot;data&quot;</TT>, and
<TT>&quot;bss&quot;</TT> columns in decimal and hexadecimal respectively.
<P>
The <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT> format counts read only data in the <TT>&quot;data&quot;</TT> column, not
the <TT>&quot;text&quot;</TT> column, and only displays the sum of the <TT>&quot;text&quot;</TT>,
<TT>&quot;data&quot;</TT>, and <TT>&quot;bss&quot;</TT> columns once, in the <TT>&quot;total&quot;</TT> column.
The <B>--radix</B> option can be used to change the number base for
all columns. Here is the same data displayed with <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT> conventions:
<P>
<PRE>
$ size --format=GNU ranlib size
text data bss total filename
279880 96920 11592 388392 ranlib
279880 96920 11888 388688 size
</PRE>
<P>
This is the same data, but displayed closer to System V conventions:
<P>
<PRE>
$ size --format=SysV ranlib size
ranlib :
section size addr
.text 294880 8192
.data 81920 303104
.bss 11592 385024
Total 388392
size :
section size addr
.text 294880 8192
.data 81920 303104
.bss 11888 385024
Total 388688
</PRE>
<DT id="5"><B>--help</B><DD>
Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.
<DT id="6"><B>-d</B><DD>
<DT id="7"><B>-o</B><DD>
<DT id="8"><B>-x</B><DD>
<DT id="9"><B>--radix=</B><I>number</I><DD>
Using one of these options, you can control whether the size of each
section is given in decimal (<B>-d</B>, or <B>--radix=10</B>); octal
(<B>-o</B>, or <B>--radix=8</B>); or hexadecimal (<B>-x</B>, or
<B>--radix=16</B>). In <B>--radix=</B><I>number</I>, only the three
values (8, 10, 16) are supported. The total size is always given in two
radices; decimal and hexadecimal for <B>-d</B> or <B>-x</B> output, or
octal and hexadecimal if you're using <B>-o</B>.
<DT id="10"><B>--common</B><DD>
Print total size of common symbols in each file. When using Berkeley
or <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT> format these are included in the bss size.
<DT id="11"><B>-t</B><DD>
<DT id="12"><B>--totals</B><DD>
Show totals of all objects listed (Berkeley or <FONT SIZE="-1">GNU</FONT> format mode only).
<DT id="13"><B>--target=</B><I>bfdname</I><DD>
Specify that the object-code format for <I>objfile</I> is
<I>bfdname</I>. This option may not be necessary; <B>size</B> can
automatically recognize many formats.
<DT id="14"><B>-V</B><DD>
<DT id="15"><B>--version</B><DD>
Display the version number of <B>size</B>.
<DT id="16"><B>@</B><I>file</I><DD>
Read command-line options from <I>file</I>. The options read are
inserted in place of the original @<I>file</I> option. If <I>file</I>
does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated
literally, and not removed.
<P>
Options in <I>file</I> are separated by whitespace. A whitespace
character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a
backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included
with a backslash. The <I>file</I> may itself contain additional
@<I>file</I> options; any such options will be processed recursively.
