**********
'nlmconv' converts a relocatable object file into a NetWare Loadable
Module.
     _Warning:_ 'nlmconv' is not always built as part of the binary
     utilities, since it is only useful for NLM targets.
     nlmconv [-I BFDNAME|--input-target=BFDNAME]
             [-O BFDNAME|--output-target=BFDNAME]
             [-T HEADERFILE|--header-file=HEADERFILE]
             [-d|--debug] [-l LINKER|--linker=LINKER]
             [-h|--help] [-V|--version]
             INFILE OUTFILE
   'nlmconv' converts the relocatable 'i386' object file INFILE into the
NetWare Loadable Module OUTFILE, optionally reading HEADERFILE for NLM
header information.  For instructions on writing the NLM command file
language used in header files, see the 'linkers' section, 'NLMLINK' in
particular, of the 'NLM Development and Tools Overview', which is part
of the NLM Software Developer's Kit ("NLM SDK"), available from Novell,
Inc.  'nlmconv' uses the GNU Binary File Descriptor library to read
INFILE; see *note BFD: (ld.info)BFD, for more information.
   'nlmconv' can perform a link step.  In other words, you can list more
than one object file for input if you list them in the definitions file
(rather than simply specifying one input file on the command line).  In
this case, 'nlmconv' calls the linker for you.
'-I BFDNAME'
'--input-target=BFDNAME'
     Object format of the input file.  'nlmconv' can usually determine
     the format of a given file (so no default is necessary).  *Note
     Target Selection::, for more information.
'-O BFDNAME'
'--output-target=BFDNAME'
     Object format of the output file.  'nlmconv' infers the output
     format based on the input format, e.g.  for a 'i386' input file the
     output format is 'nlm32-i386'.  *Note Target Selection::, for more
     information.
'-T HEADERFILE'
'--header-file=HEADERFILE'
     Reads HEADERFILE for NLM header information.  For instructions on
     writing the NLM command file language used in header files, see see
     the 'linkers' section, of the 'NLM Development and Tools Overview',
     which is part of the NLM Software Developer's Kit, available from
     Novell, Inc.
'-d'
'--debug'
     Displays (on standard error) the linker command line used by
     'nlmconv'.
'-l LINKER'
'--linker=LINKER'
     Use LINKER for any linking.  LINKER can be an absolute or a
     relative pathname.
'-h'
'--help'
     Prints a usage summary.
'-V'
'--version'
     Prints the version number for 'nlmconv'.
