Typing "symify" without arguments gives brief instructions.  Specific
information on how to use symify can be found in chapter 9.2 of the
DJGPP FAQ.

Basic operation:  compile your program with '-g' switch to add full
debugging information.  Do whatever is necessary to make the program
crash.  When the traceback appears on the screen, type "symify
<program>" where <program> is the name of your executable.  The
function, file, and line number will be displayed on the screen next to
each line of the traceback.  Symify can also read a traceback from a
file or save its output to a file.
