                      8: .SH DESCRIPTION
                      9: The input
                     10: is one or more object or library archive (see
                     11: .IR ar (1))
                     12: .I files.
                     13: The standard output
                     14: is a list of pairs of object file names,
                     15: meaning that the first file of the pair refers to
                     16: external identifiers defined in the second.
                     17: The output may be processed by
                     18: .IR  tsort (1)
                     19: to find an ordering of
                     20: a library suitable for one-pass access by
                     21: .IR  ld (1).
                     22: .PP
                     23: This brash one-liner intends to build a new library
                     24: from existing `.o' files.
                     25: .IP
                     26: ar cr library \`\|lorder *.o | tsort\`
                     27: .PP
                     28: The need for lorder may be vitiated by use of 
                     29: .IR ranlib (1),
                     30: which converts an ordered archive into a randomly
                     31: accessed library.
                     32: .SH FILES

                     42: The names of object files, in and out of libraries, must end with `.o';
                     43: nonsense results otherwise.
