1.3 millert 35: .Ar elfexec
1.1 pefo 36: .Ar ecoffexec
37: .Sh DESCRIPTION
1.6 aaron 38: .Nm
1.2 aaron 39: reads and converts the file specified as
1.1 pefo 40: .Ar elfexec
41: to ecoff format, into file
1.2 aaron 42: .Ar ecoffexec ,
43: suitable for bootstrapping certain
1.1 pefo 44: .Nm MIPS
1.7 aaron 45: systems.
46: Systems requiring this conversion are the
1.1 pefo 47: .Nm arc
48: and
1.2 aaron 49: .Nm pmax .
1.1 pefo 50: .Sh DIAGNOSTICS
51: If the conversion fails a diagnostic message is printed to explain the cause.
1.3 millert 52: .Sh BUGS
53: Does not preserve the symbol table.
