+ (int @var{descriptor}, off_t @var{offset}, const char *{segment_name}, @
+ const char **@var{errmsg}, int *@var{err})
+
+Opens an object file for reading. Creates and returns an
+@code{simple_object_read} pointer which may be passed to other
+functions to extract data from the object file.
+
+@var{descriptor} holds a file descriptor which permits reading.
+
+@var{offset} is the offset into the file; this will be @code{0} in the
+normal case, but may be a different value when reading an object file
+in an archive file.
+
+@var{segment_name} is only used with the Mach-O file format used on
+Darwin aka Mac OS X. It is required on that platform, and means to
+only look at sections within the segment with that name. The
+parameter is ignored on other systems.
+
+If an error occurs, this functions returns @code{NULL} and sets
+@code{*@var{errmsg}} to an error string and sets @code{*@var{err}} to
+an errno value or @code{0} if there is no relevant errno.

+ const char *@var{name}, off_t @var{offset}, off_t @var{length}), @
+ void *@var{data}, int *@var{err})
+
+This function calls @var{pfn} for each section in @var{simple_object}.
+It calls @var{pfn} with the section name, the offset within the file
+of the section contents, and the length of the section contents. The
+offset within the file is relative to the offset passed to
+@code{simple_object_open_read}. The @var{data} argument to this
+function is passed along to @var{pfn}.
+
+If @var{pfn} returns @code{0}, the loop over the sections stops and
+@code{simple_object_find_sections} returns. If @var{pfn} returns some
+other value, the loop continues.
+
+On success @code{simple_object_find_sections} returns. On error it
+returns an error string, and sets @code{*@var{err}} to an errno value
+or @code{0} if there is no relevant errno.

+
+Look for the section @var{name} in @var{simple_object}. This returns
+information for the first section with that name.
+
+If found, return 1 and set @code{*@var{offset}} to the offset in the
+file of the section contents and set @code{*@var{length}} to the
+length of the section contents. The value in @code{*@var{offset}}
+will be relative to the offset passed to

+
+If an error occurs, @code{simple_object_find_section} returns

+
+Fetch the attributes of @var{simple_object}. The attributes are
+internal information such as the format of the object file, or the
+architecture it was compiled for. This information will persist until
+@code{simple_object_attributes_release} is called, even if
+@var{simple_object} itself is released.
+
+On error this returns @code{NULL}, sets @code{*@var{errmsg}} to an

+
+Compare @var{attrs1} and @var{attrs2}. If they could be linked
+together without error, return @code{NULL}. Otherwise, return an
+error message and set @code{*@var{err}} to an errno value or @code{0}

+@deftypefn Extension {simple_object_write *} simple_object_start_write @

+
+Start creating a new object file using the object file format
+described in @var{attrs}. You must fetch attribute information from
+an existing object file before you can create a new one. There is
+currently no support for creating an object file de novo.
+
+@var{segment_name} is only used with Mach-O as found on Darwin aka Mac
+OS X. The parameter is required on that target. It means that all
+sections are created within the named segment. It is ignored for
+other object file formats.
+
+On error @code{simple_object_start_write} returns @code{NULL}, sets
+@code{*@var{ERRMSG}} to an error message, and sets @code{*@var{err}}

+ unsigned int @var{align}, const char **@var{errmsg}, int *@var{err})
+
+Add a section to @var{simple_object}. @var{name} is the name of the
+new section. @var{align} is the required alignment expressed as the
+number of required low-order 0 bits (e.g., 2 for alignment to a 32-bit
+boundary).
+
+The section is created as containing data, readable, not writable, not
+executable, not loaded at runtime. The section is not written to the
+file until @code{simple_object_write_to_file} is called.
+
+On error this returns @code{NULL}, sets @code{*@var{errmsg}} to an

+copied into memory if necessary. If @var{copy} is zero, @var{buffer}
