STRIP(1)		     BSD Reference Manual		      STRIP(1)

NAME
     strip - remove unnecessary information from executable files

SYNOPSIS
     strip [-d] [-o output] file ...

DESCRIPTION
     The strip utility deletes the relocation information and symbol table
     used by assemblers, loaders and debuggers.	 This significantly decreases
     the size of the installed binaries and saves disk space.

     The options are as follows:

     -d	     Delete only debugging and empty symbols.

     -o	     Do not change file but rather place the newly stripped file in
	     output. The file output must not already exist and only one file
	     may be specified.

     Strip exits 0 on success and 1 if an error occurred.

SEE ALSO
     cc(1),  ld(1)

HISTORY
     A strip command appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX.
