+.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

+.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.
+

+Specify the name of the executable for which addresses should be
+translated. The default file is
