+//===- StripSymbols.cpp - Strip symbols and debug info from a module ------===//

+//
+// This file implements stripping symbols out of symbol tables.
+//
+// Specifically, this allows you to strip all of the symbols out of:
+//   * All functions in a module
+//   * All non-essential symbols in a module (all function symbols + all module
+//     scope symbols)
+//   * Debug information.
+//
+// Notice that:
+//   * This pass makes code much less readable, so it should only be used in
+//     situations where the 'strip' utility would be used (such as reducing 
+//     code size, and making it harder to reverse engineer code).
+//
