+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm binpatch
+.Op Fl b | Fl w | Fl l
+.Op Fl o Ar offset
+.Fl s Ar symname
+.Op Fl r Ar value
+.Ar binfile
+.Nm binpatch
+.Op Fl b | Fl w | Fl l
+.Op Fl o Ar offset
+.Fl a Ar addr
+.Op Fl r Ar value
+.Ar binfile
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm binpatch
+is used to modify or examine the data associated with a symbol in a binary
+file
+.Ar binfile .
+The flags
+.Fl b ,
+.Fl w
+and
+.Fl l
+specify the size of the data to be modified or examined
+(byte, word and long respectively.) The
+.Ar binfile
+is scanned in search of the symbol
+.Ar symname
+(specified with the
+.Fl s
+flag)
+If the symbol is found the current data and address are printed. Next if the
+.Fl r
+flag has been given, the current data is replaced with that of
+.Ar value .
+.Pp
+If the second form is used the address
+.Ar addr
+specified with the
+.Fl a
+flag is used as a direct address into the data section of the binary and
+no symbol search is performed.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl o
+flag specifies an offset in byte, word or long (
+.Fl b
+,
+.Fl w
+,
+or
+.Fl l
+) units from the given locator (
+.Fl s
+or
+.Fl a
