/* ============== original README ===================
 *
 * sstrip is a small utility that removes the contents at the end of an
 * ELF file that are not part of the program's memory image.
 * 
 * Most ELF executables are built with both a program header table and a
 * section header table. However, only the former is required in order
 * for the OS to load, link and execute a program. sstrip attempts to
 * extract the ELF header, the program header table, and its contents,
 * leaving everything else in the bit bucket. It can only remove parts of
 * the file that occur at the end, after the parts to be saved. However,
 * this almost always includes the section header table, and occasionally
 * a few random sections that are not used when running a program.
 * 
 * It should be noted that the GNU bfd library is (understandably)
 * dependent on the section header table as an index to the file's
 * contents. Thus, an executable file that has no section header table
 * cannot be used with gdb, objdump, or any other program based upon the
 * bfd library, at all. In fact, the program will not even recognize the
 * file as a valid executable. (This limitation is noted in the source
 * code comments for bfd, and is marked "FIXME", so this may change at
 * some future date. However, I would imagine that it is a pretty
 * low-priority item, as executables without a section header table are
 * rare in the extreme.) This probably also explains why strip doesn't
 * offer the option to do this.
 * 
 * Shared library files may also have their section header table removed.
 * Such a library will still function; however, it will no longer be
 * possible for a compiler to link a new program against it.
 * 
 * As an added bonus, sstrip also tries to removes trailing zero bytes
 * from the end of the file. (This normally cannot be done with an
 * executable that has a section header table.)
 * 
 * sstrip is a very simplistic program. It depends upon the common
 * practice of putting the parts of the file that contribute to the
 * memory image at the front, and the remaining material at the end. This
 * permits it to discard the latter material without affecting file
 * offsets and memory addresses in what remains. Of course, the ELF
 * standard permits files to be organized in almost any order, so if a
 * pathological linker decided to put its section headers at the top,
 * sstrip would be useless on such executables.
