Thanks for letting us know; the manual page for nm is enclosed below:
NM(1) UNIX Programmer's Manual NM(1)
NAME
nm - print name list
SYNOPSIS
nm [ -agnopru ] [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
_N_m prints the name list (symbol table) of each object _f_i_l_e
in the argument list. If an argument is an archive, a list-
ing for each object file in the archive will be produced.
If no _f_i_l_e is given, the symbols in "a.out" are listed.
Each symbol name is preceded by its value (blanks if unde-
fined) and one of the letters U (undefined), A (absolute), T
(text segment symbol), D (data segment symbol), B (bss seg-
ment symbol), C (common symbol), f file name, or - for
debugger symbol table entries (see -a below). If the symbol
is local (non-external) the type letter is in lower case.
The output is sorted alphabetically.
Options are:
-a Print symbol table entries inserted for use by
debuggers.
-g Print only global (external) symbols.
-n Sort numerically rather than alphabetically.
-o Prepend file or archive element name to each output
line rather than only once.
-p Don't sort; print in symbol-table order.
-r Sort in reverse order.
-u Print only undefined symbols.
