Multiple Mach-O files can be combined in a multi-architecture binary. The Accent file format was in turn, based on an idea from Spice Lisp. ![]() The basic structure-a list of variable-length "load commands" that reference pages of data elsewhere in the file -was also used in the executable file format for Accent. When looking up symbols Mach-O uses a two-level namespace that encodes each symbol into an 'object/symbol name' pair that is then linearly searched for, first by the object and then the symbol name. ![]() Mach-O uses the REL relocation format to handle references to symbols. Each Mach-O file is made up of one Mach-O header, followed by a series of load commands, followed by one or more segments, each of which contains between 0 and 255 sections.
