+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\c
+.B addr2line
+translates program addresses into file names and line numbers.  Given
+an address and an executable, it uses the debugging information in the
+executable to figure out which file name and line number are
+associated with a given address.
+
+The executable to use is specified with the
+.B \-e
+option.  The default is
+.B a.out\c
+\&.
+
+.B addr2line
+has two modes of operation.
+
+In the first, hexadecimal addresses are specified on the command line,
+and
+.B addr2line
+displays the file name and line number for each address.
+
+In the second,
+.B addr2line
+reads hexadecimal addresses from standard input, and prints the file
+name and line number for each address on standard output.  In this
+mode,
+.B addr2line
+may be used in a pipe to convert dynamically chosen addresses.
+
+The format of the output is FILENAME:LINENO.  The file name and line
+number for each address is printed on a separate line.  If the
+.B \-f
+option is used, then each FILENAME:LINENO line is preceded by a
+FUNCTIONNAME line which is the name of the function containing the
+address.
+
+If the file name or function name can not be determined,
+.B addr2line
+will print two question marks in their place.  If the line number can
+not be determined,
+.B addr2line
+will print 0.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.BI "\-b " "bfdname"\c
+.TP

+Specify the object-code format for the object files to be

+
+.TP
+.B \-C
+.TP
+.B \-\-demangle
+Decode (\fIdemangle\fP) low-level symbol names into user-level names.
+Besides removing any initial underscore prepended by the system, this
+makes C++ function names readable.
+
+.TP
+.BI "\-e " "filename"\c
+.TP
+.BI "\-\-exe=" "filename"
+Specify the name of the executable for which addresses should be
+translated.  The default file is
+.B a.out\c
+\&.
+
+.TP
+.B \-f
+.TP
+.B \-\-functions
+Display function names as well as file and line number information.
+
+.TP
+.B \-s

+.B \-\-basenames
+Display only the base of each file name.
