-.TH EMACSCLIENT 1
-.\" NAME should be all caps, SECTION should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection
-.\" other parms are allowed: see man(7), man(1)
-.SH NAME
-emacsclient \- tells a running Emacs to visit a file
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B emacsclient
-.I "[options] files ..."
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-This manual page documents briefly the
-.BR emacsclient
-command.  Full documentation is available in the GNU Info format; see
-below.
-This manual page was originally written for the Debian GNU/Linux
-distribution, but is not specific to that system.
-.PP
-.B emacsclient
-works in conjunction with the built-in Emacs server.
-.PP
-You can either call
-.B emacsclient
-directly or let other programs run it for you when necessary.  On
-GNU and Unix systems many programs consult the environment
-variable EDITOR (sometimes also VISUAL) to obtain the command used for
-editing.  Thus, setting this environment variable to 'emacsclient'
-will allow these programs to use an already running Emacs for editing.
-Other operating systems might have their own methods for defining the
-default editor.
-
-For
-.B emacsclient
-to work, you need an already running Emacs with a server.  Within Emacs,
-call the functions `server-start' or `server-mode'.  (Your `.emacs' file
-can do this automatically if you add either `(server-start)' or
-`(server-mode 1)' to it.)
-
-When you've finished editing the buffer, type `C-x #'
-(`server-edit').  This saves the file and sends a message back to the
-`emacsclient' program telling it to exit.  The programs that use
-`EDITOR' wait for the "editor" (actually, `emacsclient') to exit.  `C-x
-#' also checks for other pending external requests to edit various
-files, and selects the next such file.
-
-If you set the variable `server-window' to a window or a frame, `C-x
-#' displays the server buffer in that window or in that frame.
-
-.SH OPTIONS
-The programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
-options starting with two dashes (`-').
-.TP
-.B \-n, \-\-no-wait
-returns
-immediately without waiting for you to "finish" the buffer in Emacs.
-.TP
-.B \-e, \-\-eval
-do not visit files but instead evaluate the arguments as Emacs
-Lisp expressions.
-.TP
-.B \-s, \-\-socket-name=FILENAME
-use socket named FILENAME for communication.
-.TP
-.B \-f, \-\-server-file=FILENAME
-use TCP configuration file FILENAME for communication.
-This can also be specified via the `EMACS_SERVER_FILE' environment variable.
-.TP
-.B \-a, \-\-alternate-editor=EDITOR
-if the Emacs server is not running, run the specified editor instead.
-This can also be specified via the `ALTERNATE_EDITOR' environment variable.
-.TP
-.B \-d, \-\-display=DISPLAY
-tell the server to display the files on the given display.
-.TP
-.B \-V, \-\-version
-print version information and exit
-.TP
-.B \-h, \-\-help
-print this usage information message and exit
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-The program is documented fully in
-.IR "Using Emacs as a Server"
-available via the Info system.
