+"""Generate z/OS archive files
+
+z/OS archives use EBCDIC encoding for headers, magic bytes, and symbol names.
+This script generates archives in place to avoid reliance on canned binaries.
+
+Usage examples:
+  # Valid archive with one member and symbol table:
+  %python %S/Inputs/generate_zos_archive.py --output %t.a \
+      --symtab "foo:0" --member foo.o:%S/Inputs/foo.o
+
+  # Empty archive:
+  %python %S/Inputs/generate_zos_archive.py --output %t.a --empty
+
+  # Malformed member header: bad terminator
+  %python %S/Inputs/generate_zos_archive.py --output %t.a \
+      --member foo.o --bad-terminator
+
+  # Malformed __.SYMDEF header: bad terminator
+  %python %S/Inputs/generate_zos_archive.py --output %t.a \
+      --member foo.o --symtab foo:0 --malform-symtab-hdr bad-terminator
+
+  # Member with explicit hex content:
+  %python %S/Inputs/generate_zos_archive.py --output %t.a \
+      --member foo.o:hex:deadbeef

Nit: here and in various other places, need a trailing "." at the end of the comment.
