+.SH "NAME"
+windres \- manipulate Windows resources.
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+windres [options] [input-file] [output-file]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+\f(CWwindres\fR reads resources from an input file and copies them into
+an output file. Either file may be in one of three formats:
+.Ip "\f(CWrc\fR" 4
+A text format read by the Resource Compiler.
+.Ip "\f(CWres\fR" 4
+A binary format generated by the Resource Compiler.
+.Ip "\f(CWcoff\fR" 4
+A \s-1COFF\s0 object or executable.
+.PP
+The exact description of these different formats is available in
+documentation from Microsoft.
+.PP
+When \f(CWwindres\fR converts from the \f(CWrc\fR format to the \f(CWres\fR
+format, it is acting like the Windows Resource Compiler. When
+\f(CWwindres\fR converts from the \f(CWres\fR format to the \f(CWcoff\fR
+format, it is acting like the Windows \f(CWCVTRES\fR program.
+.PP
+When \f(CWwindres\fR generates an \f(CWrc\fR file, the output is similar
+but not identical to the format expected for the input. When an input
+\f(CWrc\fR file refers to an external filename, an output \f(CWrc\fR file
+will instead include the file contents.
+.PP
+If the input or output format is not specified, \f(CWwindres\fR will
+guess based on the file name, or, for the input file, the file contents.
+A file with an extension of \fI.rc\fR will be treated as an \f(CWrc\fR
+file, a file with an extension of \fI.res\fR will be treated as a
+\f(CWres\fR file, and a file with an extension of \fI.o\fR or
+\&\fI.exe\fR will be treated as a \f(CWcoff\fR file.
+.PP
+If no output file is specified, \f(CWwindres\fR will print the resources
+in \f(CWrc\fR format to standard output.
+.PP
+The normal use is for you to write an \f(CWrc\fR file, use \f(CWwindres\fR
+to convert it to a \s-1COFF\s0 object file, and then link the \s-1COFF\s0 file into
+your application. This will make the resources described in the
+\f(CWrc\fR file available to Windows.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.Ip "\f(CW-i \fIfilename\fR\fR" 4
+.Ip "\f(CW--input \fIfilename\fR\fR" 4
+The name of the input file. If this option is not used, then
+\f(CWwindres\fR will use the first non-option argument as the input file
+name. If there are no non-option arguments, then \f(CWwindres\fR will
+read from standard input. \f(CWwindres\fR can not read a \s-1COFF\s0 file from
+standard input.
+.Ip "\f(CW-o \fIfilename\fR\fR" 4
+.Ip "\f(CW--output \fIfilename\fR\fR" 4
+The name of the output file. If this option is not used, then
+\f(CWwindres\fR will use the first non-option argument, after any used
+for the input file name, as the output file name. If there is no
+non-option argument, then \f(CWwindres\fR will write to standard output.
+\f(CWwindres\fR can not write a \s-1COFF\s0 file to standard output.
+.Ip "\f(CW-I \fIformat\fR\fR" 4
+.Ip "\f(CW--input-format \fIformat\fR\fR" 4
+The input format to read. \fIformat\fR may be \fBres\fR, \fBrc\fR, or
+\fBcoff\fR. If no input format is specified, \f(CWwindres\fR will
+guess, as described above.
+.Ip "\f(CW-O \fIformat\fR\fR" 4
+.Ip "\f(CW--output-format \fIformat\fR\fR" 4
+The output format to generate. \fIformat\fR may be \fBres\fR,
+\fBrc\fR, or \fBcoff\fR. If no output format is specified,
+\f(CWwindres\fR will guess, as described above.
+.Ip "\f(CW-F \fItarget\fR\fR" 4
+.Ip "\f(CW--target \fItarget\fR\fR" 4
+Specify the \s-1BFD\s0 format to use for a \s-1COFF\s0 file as input or output. This
+is a \s-1BFD\s0 target name; you can use the \f(CW--help\fR option to see a list
+of supported targets. Normally \f(CWwindres\fR will use the default
+format, which is the first one listed by the \f(CW--help\fR option.
+\f(CW@ref\fR{Target Selection}.
+.Ip "\f(CW--preprocessor \fIprogram\fR\fR" 4
+When \f(CWwindres\fR reads an \f(CWrc\fR file, it runs it through the C
+preprocessor first. This option may be used to specify the preprocessor
+to use, including any leading arguments. The default preprocessor
+argument is \f(CWgcc -E -xc-header -DRC_INVOKED\fR.
+.Ip "\f(CW--include-dir \fIdirectory\fR\fR" 4
+Specify an include directory to use when reading an \f(CWrc\fR file.
+\f(CWwindres\fR will pass this to the preprocessor as an \f(CW-I\fR
+option. \f(CWwindres\fR will also search this directory when looking for
+files named in the \f(CWrc\fR file.
+.Ip "\f(CW-D \fItarget\fR\fR" 4
+.Ip "\f(CW--define \fIsym\fR[=\fIval\fR]\fR" 4
+Specify a \f(CW-D\fR option to pass to the preprocessor when reading an
+\f(CWrc\fR file.
+.Ip "\f(CW-v\fR" 4
+Enable verbose mode. This tells you what the preprocessor is if you
+didn't specify one.
+.Ip "\f(CW--language \fIval\fR\fR" 4
+Specify the default language to use when reading an \f(CWrc\fR file.
+\fIval\fR should be a hexadecimal language code. The low eight bits are
+the language, and the high eight bits are the sublanguage.
+.Ip "\f(CW--use-temp-file\fR" 4
+Use a temporary file to instead of using popen to read the output of
+the preprocessor. Use this option if the popen implementation is buggy
+on the host (eg., certain non-English language versions of Windows 95 and
+Windows 98 are known to have buggy popen where the output will instead
+go the console).
+.Ip "\f(CW--no-use-temp-file\fR" 4
+Use popen, not a temporary file, to read the output of the preprocessor.
+This is the default behaviour.
+.Ip "\f(CW--help\fR" 4
+Prints a usage summary.
+.Ip "\f(CW--version\fR" 4
+Prints the version number for \f(CWwindres\fR.
+.Ip "\f(CW--yydebug\fR" 4
+If \f(CWwindres\fR is compiled with \f(CWYYDEBUG\fR defined as \f(CW1\fR,
+this will turn on parser debugging.
