+.TH SYMORDER 8
+.UC
+.SH NAME
+symorder \- rearrange name list
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B symorder
+orderlist symbolfile
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Orderlist
+is a file containing symbols to be found in symbolfile,
+1 symbol per line.
+.PP
+.I Symbolfile
+is updated in place to put the requested symbols first
+in the symbol table, in the order specified. This is done
+by swapping the old symbols in the required spots with the
+new ones. If all of the order symbols are not found, an
+error is generated.
+.PP
+This program was specifically designed to cut down on the
+overhead of getting symbols from /vmunix.
