 .TP
-.B \-g
+.B "\-I \fIformat\fP \-\-input\-format=\fIformat\fP"
+Treat the original \fIobjfile\fP as a file with the object

-\|'.)
+.B "\-v \-\-verbose"
+Verbose output: list all object files modified.  In the case of
+archives, ``strip \-V'' lists all members of the archive.

-.BI "-T " "bfdname"\c
-\&
-You can specify a particular object-code format \c
-.I bfdname\c
-\& for
