41 function causes the ELF descriptor
43 to be adjusted so that the next call to
45 will provide access to the archive member at byte offset
50 is the byte offset from the start of the archive to the beginning of

53 Archive member offsets may be retrieved using the

63 To process all the members of an archive use:
64 .Bd -literal -offset indent
