14
15       --help Show usage and exit.
16
17       --symbols <file>
18              generate symbols map for file <file>
19
20       --attach <pid>
21              attach the process of PID <pid> to debugger
22
23       --run <program> <args...>

30       edb --symbols /lib/libc.so.6 > libc.so.6.map

33
34       for i in $(ls /lib); do edb --symbols $i > $(basename $i).map; done
35
36             Useful to generate maps for all libs you have in /lib.
37
38       edb --run /bin/ls
39
40             Will open the ls program binary in debugger.
