+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B nlmconv
+converts the relocatable object file
+.B infile
+into the NetWare Loadable Module
+.BR outfile ,
+optionally reading
+.I headerfile
+for NLM header information. For instructions on writing the NLM
+command file language used in header files, see
+.IR "The NetWare Tool Maker Specification Manual" ,
+available from Novell, Inc.
+.B nlmconv
+currently only works with i386 object files in
+.BR COFF ,
+.BR ELF ,
+or
+.B a.out
+format.
+.br
+.B nlmconv
+uses the GNU Binary File Descriptor library to read
+.IR infile .
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-I \fIformat\fR, \fB\-\-input\-format=\fIformat
+Consider the source file's object format to be
+.IR format ,
+rather than attempting to deduce it.
+.TP
+.B \-O \fIformat\fR, \fB\-\-output\-format=\fIformat
+Write the output file using the object format
+.IR format .
+.B nlmconv
+infers the output format based on the input format, e.g. for an i386
+input file the output format is
+.IR nlm32\-i386 .
+.TP
+.B \-T \fIheaderfile\fR, \fB\-\-header\-file=\fIheaderfile
+Reads
+.I headerfile
+for NLM header information. For instructions on writing the NLM
+command file language used in header files, see
+.IR "The NetWare Tool Maker Specification Manual" ,
+available from Novell, Inc.
+.TP
+.B \-V\fR, \fB\-\-version

+.B nlmconv
+and exit.
+.TP
+.B \-h\fR, \fB\-\-help
+Show a summary of the options to
+.B nlmconv
