size - list section sizes and total size.

[--target=bfdname] [-V|--version]
[objfile...]
The GNU size utility lists the section sizes---and the total
size---for each of the object or archive files objfile in
its argument list. By default, one line of output is
generated for each object file or each module in an archive.
objfile... are the object files to be examined. If none are
specified, the file "a.out" will be used.
The command line options have the following meanings:
-A
-B
--format=compatibility
Using one of these options, you can choose whether the
output from GNU size resembles output from System V size
(using -A, or --format=sysv), or Berkeley size (using
-B, or --format=berkeley). The default is the one-line
format similar to Berkeley's.
Here is an example of the Berkeley (default) format of
output from size:
$ size --format=Berkeley ranlib size
text data bss dec hex filename
294880 81920 11592 388392 5ed28 ranlib
294880 81920 11888 388688 5ee50 size
This is the same data, but displayed closer to System V
conventions:
$ size --format=SysV ranlib size
ranlib :
section size addr
.text 294880 8192
.data 81920 303104
.bss 11592 385024
Total 388392

--help
Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.
-d
-o
-x
--radix=number
Using one of these options, you can control whether the
size of each section is given in decimal (-d, or
--radix=10); octal (-o, or --radix=8); or hexadecimal
(-x, or --radix=16). In --radix=number, only the three
values (8, 10, 16) are supported. The total size is
always given in two radices; decimal and hexadecimal for
-d or -x output, or octal and hexadecimal if you're
using -o.
-t
--totals
Show totals of all objects listed (Berkeley format
listing mode only).
--target=bfdname
Specify that the object-code format for objfile is
bfdname. This option may not be necessary; size can
automatically recognize many formats.
-V
--version
Display the version number of size.
