Net.PC.Guru's: I am in need of a program to dump the symbol table of an MS-DOS object file, like unix's nm. The symbols that I wish to see are the exported and imported functions/procedures/external variable. Does anyone have such a critter? I need it to help hack an object library that I don't have source for. If no one has such a critter, I guess I can write one ( with the help of the MS-DOS Encyclopedia ), but I have no desire to reinvent the wheel ( honestly, I'm incredibly lazy :-) Thanks in Advance Eric ps. e-mail is preferred

The LIB.EXE utility will provide a listing of the externally-available symbols in an object library. (Of course, it must be a Microsoft- compatible library format.) Check the documentation for syntax.

The MKS toolkit contains a work-alike of the unix command nm.
(This command is used to display the symbol table of a file)
It recognizes .obj files as well as .exe files.
I have not used it much so I can't say much about it's
limitations but the manual states that is does not understand
libraries. MKS also includes a size command which understands
.exe files. These comments apply to version 2.2.
MKS is: Mortice Kern Systems Inc.
