NAME
     oob - OOC symbol file browser

SYNOPSIS
     oob [options] <module>

DESCRIPTION
     oob displays the interface definition of a module, based on information ex-
     tracted  from  the module's symbol file.  It accepts a single argument, the
     name of a module.	The contents of the symbol file are written to stdout in
     an extended module syntax.  Compared an  Oberon-2	module,  it  differs  in
     these points:

     Expanded Module Names
	    The  module  part of a type name is expanded to the full name of the
	    module.  That is, aliases assigned	through  import  statements  are
	    discarded.

     Inherited Fields
	    With  -x,  a record type shows the list of all its fields, including
	    the ones it inherits from its base types.

     Type-bound Procedures
	    With -x, a record definition lists all type-bound procedures associ-
	    ated with it within its RECORD ... END block, and includes both  lo-
	    cal and inherited procedures.

OPTIONS
     --config <file>
	    Use given file as configuration file.

     --repository <directory>, -r <directory>
	    Add a directory to the list of repositories.

     --extended, -x
	    For  records,  include inherited fields and type-bound procedures in
	    the output.  By default, only the local fields of the record and all
	    type-bound procedures that are not redefinition of existing ones are
	    displayed.

     --help, -h
	    Write short usage summary and exit.

ENVIRONMENT
     OO2CRC holds the name of the configuration file.  OOC_REPS  is  a	list  of
     repository paths, separated by colons (:).  Empty paths are ignored.

DIAGNOSTICS
     Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 otherwise.
