.TH LORDER11 1
.SH NAME
lorder11 \- find ordering relation for an \s-2LSI 11\s0 object library
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B lorder11
file ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
Argument
.I file
is the input consisting of
one or more object files or library archives (see
.IR ar (1)).
The standard output
is a list of pairs of object file names,
meaning that the first file of the pair refers to
external identifiers defined in the second.
The output may be processed by \s-2UNIX\s0 \f2tsort\f1
to find an ordering of a library suitable for one-pass access by
.IR  ld11 (1).
.PP
This brash one-liner intends to build a new library
from existing `.o' files.
.IP
ar cr library \`\|lorder11 *.o | tsort\`
.PP
The need for lorder11 is eliminated by
.IR ranlib11 (1),
which converts an ordered archive into a randomly
accessed library.

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