        !            34: .it Nlist
        !            35: examines the name list in
        !            36: the given executable output file
        !            37: and selectively extracts a
        !            38: list of values.
        !            39: The name list consists of
        !            40: a list of 8-character names (null padded)
        !            41: each followed by two words.
        !            42: The list is terminated with a null name.
        !            43: Each name is looked up in the name list of
        !            44: the file.
        !            45: If the name is found, the type and value of the
        !            46: name are placed in the two words following
        !            47: the name.
        !            48: If the name is not found, the type entry is set to \*-1.
        !            49: .s3
        !            50: This subroutine is useful for
        !            51: examining the system name list kept in
        !            52: the file
        !            53: \fB/usr/sys/unix\fR.
        !            54: In this way programs can obtain system addresses
        !            55: that are up to date.
