 On some systems, both the C and C++ compilers put an underscore in front
 of every name.  For example, the C name @code{foo} gets the low-level
 name @code{_foo}.  This option removes the initial underscore.

+@code{nlmconv} converts a relocatable object file into a NetWare
+Loadable Module.  @code{nlmconv} currently only works with @samp{i386}
+object files in @code{coff}, @sc{elf}, or @code{a.out} format.

+@code{nlmconv} converts the relocatable @samp{i386} object file
+@var{infile} into the NetWare Loadable Module @var{outfile}, optionally
+reading @var{headerfile} for NLM header information.  For instructions
+on writing the NLM command file language used in header files, see
+@cite{The NetWare Tool Maker Specification Manual}, available from
+Novell, Inc.  @code{nlmconv} uses the @sc{gnu} Binary File Descriptor
+library to read @var{infile}; see @ref{BFD,,BFD,ld.info,Using LD, the
+GNU linker}, for more information.
+
+@table @code
+@item -I @var{format}
+@itemx --input-format=@var{format}
+Object format of the input file.  @code{nlmconv} can usually determine
+the format of a given file (so no default is necessary).  @var{format}
+arguments are normal BFD names; for a list of these, run
+@w{@samp{objdump -i}}.
+
+@item -O @var{format}
+@itemx --output-format=@var{format}
+Object format of the output file.  @code{nlmconv} infers the output
+format based on the input format, e.g. for a @samp{i386} input file the
+output format is @samp{nlm32-i386}.  @var{format} arguments are normal
+BFD names; for a list of these, run @w{@samp{objdump -i}}.
+
+@item -T @var{headerfile}
+@itemx --header-file=@var{headerfile}
+Reads @var{headerfile} for NLM header information.  For instructions on
+writing the NLM command file language used in header files, see
+@cite{The NetWare Tool Maker Specification Manual}, available from
+Novell, Inc.
