+llvm-ranlib - Generate index for LLVM archive
+=============================================
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+
+
+**llvm-ranlib** [--version] [-help] <archive-file>
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+
+The **llvm-ranlib** command is similar to the common Unix utility, ``ranlib``. It
+adds or updates the symbol table in an LLVM archive file. Note that using the
+**llvm-ar** modifier *s* is usually more efficient than running **llvm-ranlib**
+which is only provided only for completness and compatibility. Unlike other
+implementations of ``ranlib``, **llvm-ranlib** indexes LLVM bitcode files, not
+native object modules. You can list the contents of the symbol table with the
+``llvm-nm -s`` command.
+
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+
+
+*archive-file*
+
+ Specifies the archive-file to which the symbol table is added or updated.
+
+
+
+*--version*
+
+ Print the version of **llvm-ranlib** and exit without building a symbol table.
+
+
+
+*-help*
+
+ Print usage help for **llvm-ranlib** and exit without building a symbol table.
+
+
+
+
+EXIT STATUS
+-----------
+
+
+If **llvm-ranlib** succeeds, it will exit with 0. If an error occurs, a non-zero
+exit code will be returned.
