+
+Nm is a version of the Plan 9 nm command.  The original is documented at
+
+	http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/1/nm
+
+It prints the name list (symbol table) for programs compiled by gc as well as the
+Plan 9 C compiler.
+
+This implementation adds the flag -S, which prints each symbol's size 
+in decimal after its address.
+
+For reasons of disambiguation it is installed as 6nm although it also serves
+as an 8nm and a 5nm.
