cmd/nm: add -sort=size

2014-01-08T23:56:40+00:00

When printing the size, we often want to sort on that key.
Because it's used when looking for large things, make the
sort go from largest to smallest.

Perfect recreation of CL 45150044, which was lost to some blunder.

cmd/nm: reimplement in Go

2013-12-16T17:52:11+00:00

The immediate goal is to support the new object file format,
which libmach (nm's support library) does not understand.
Rather than add code to libmach or reengineer liblink to
support this new use, just write it in Go.

The C version of nm reads the Plan 9 symbol table stored in
Go binaries, now otherwise unused.

This reimplementation uses the standard symbol table for
the corresponding file format instead, bringing us one step
closer to removing the Plan 9 symbol table from Go binaries.

Tell cmd/dist not to build cmd/nm anymore.
Tell cmd/go to install cmd/nm in the tool directory.

cmd/nm: put the -S flag in the usage message

2013-09-16T06:13:27+00:00

The -S flag reports symbol size, but is missing from the usage message.

cmd/godoc: use go/build to determine package and example files

2013-02-19T19:19:58+00:00

Also:
- faster code for example extraction
- simplify handling of command documentation:
  all "main" packages are treated as commands
- various minor cleanups along the way

For commands written in Go, any doc.go file containing
documentation must now be part of package main (rather
then package documentation), otherwise the documentation
won't show up in godoc (it will still build, though).

For commands written in C, documentation may still be
in doc.go files defining package documentation, but the
recommended way is to explicitly ignore those files with
a +build ignore constraint to define package main.

Fixes #4806.

        2. reformat cmd/ld document with minor correction
           document which -H flags are valid on which ld
           document -d flag can't be used on Windows.
