+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\c
+.B addr2line
+translates program addresses into file names and line numbers. Given
+an address and an executable, it uses the debugging information in the
+executable to figure out which file name and line number are
+associated with a given address.
+
+The executable to use is specified with the
+.B \-e
+option. The default is
+.B a.out\c
+\&.
+
+.B addr2line
+has two modes of operation.
+
+In the first, hexadecimal addresses are specified on the command line,
+and
+.B addr2line
+displays the file name and line number for each address.
+
+In the second,
+.B addr2line
+reads hexadecimal addresses from standard input, and prints the file
+name and line number for each address on standard output. In this
+mode,
+.B addr2line
+may be used in a pipe to convert dynamically chosen addresses.
+
+The format of the output is FILENAME:LINENO. The file name and line
+number for each address is printed on a separate line. If the
+.B \-f
+option is used, then each FILENAME:LINENO line is preceded by a
+FUNCTIONNAME line which is the name of the function containing the
+address.
+
+If the file name or function name can not be determined,
+.B addr2line
+will print two question marks in their place. If the line number can
+not be determined,
+.B addr2line
+will print 0.
+

+@code{addr2line} translates program addresses into file names and line
+numbers. Given an address and an executable, it uses the debugging
+information in the executable to figure out which file name and line
+number are associated with a given address.
+
+The executable to use is specified with the @code{-e} option. The
+default is @file{a.out}.
+
+@code{addr2line} has two modes of operation.
+
+In the first, hexadecimal addresses are specified on the command line,
+and @code{addr2line} displays the file name and line number for each
+address.
+
+In the second, @code{addr2line} reads hexadecimal addresses from
+standard input, and prints the file name and line number for each
+address on standard output. In this mode, @code{addr2line} may be used
+in a pipe to convert dynamically chosen addresses.
+
+The format of the output is @samp{FILENAME:LINENO}. The file name and
+line number for each address is printed on a separate line. If the
+@code{-f} option is used, then each @samp{FILENAME:LINENO} line is
+preceded by a @samp{FUNCTIONNAME} line which is the name of the function
+containing the address.
+
+If the file name or function name can not be determined,
+@code{addr2line} will print two question marks in their place. If the
+line number can not be determined, @code{addr2line} will print 0.
+
+The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are
+equivalent.
+
