  35 The GNU \c
  36 .B size\c
  37 \& utility lists the section sizes\(em\&and the total
  38 size\(em\&for each of the object files
  39 .I objfile
  40 in its argument list.
  41 By default, one line of output is generated for each object file or each
  42 module in an archive.

  51 Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from GNU
  52 \c
  53 .B size\c
  54 \& resembles output from System V \c
  55 .B size\c
  56 \& (using `\|\c
  57 .B \-A\c
  58 \|',
  59 or `\|\c
  60 .B \-\-format=sysv\c
  61 \|'), or Berkeley \c
  62 .B size\c
  63 \& (using `\|\c
  64 .B \-B\c
  65 \|', or
  66 `\|\c
  67 .B \-\-format=berkeley\c
  68 \|').  The default is the one-line format similar to
  69 Berkeley's.

  82 .BI "\-\-radix " "number"
  83 Using one of these options, you can control whether the size of each
  84 section is given in decimal (`\|\c
  85 .B \-d\c
  86 \|', or `\|\c
  87 .B \-\-radix 10\c
  88 \|'); octal
  89 (`\|\c
  90 .B \-o\c
  91 \|', or `\|\c
  92 .B \-\-radix 8\c
  93 \|'); or hexadecimal (`\|\c
  94 .B \-x\c
  95 \|', or
  96 `\|\c
  97 .B \-\-radix 16\c
  98 \|').  In `\|\c
  99 .B \-\-radix \c
 100 .I number\c
 101 \&\c
 102 \|', only the three
 103 values (8, 10, 16) are supported.  The total size is always given in two
 104 radices; decimal and hexadecimal for `\|\c
 105 .B \-d\c
 106 \|' or `\|\c
 107 .B \-x\c
 108 \|' output, or
 109 octal and hexadecimal if you're using `\|\c
 110 .B \-o\c
 111 \|'.
