   EXAMPLES:
              The debugger can be started in several modes.

              Passing an executable as a positional argument prepares lldb  to  debug  the  given
              executable.  Arguments  passed  after  --  are considered arguments to the debugged
              executable.

              lldb --arch x86_64 /path/to/program -- --arch arvm7

              Passing one of the attach options causes lldb to immediately attach  to  the  given
              process.

              lldb -p <pid> lldb -n <process-name>

              Passing --repl starts lldb in REPL mode.

              lldb -r

              Passing --core causes lldb to debug the core file.

              lldb -c /path/to/core

              Command  options  can  be  combined  with  either  mode  and  cause lldb to run the
              specified commands before or after events, like loading the file  or  crashing,  in
              the order provided on the command line.

              lldb  -O  'settings  set  stop-disassembly-count  20'  -o  'run'  -o  'bt'  lldb -S
              /source/before/file  -s  /source/after/file   lldb   -K   /source/before/crash   -k
              /source/after/crash
