+.Sh NAME
+.Nm setiathome
+.Nd the SETI@home client program
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Ar options
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+is the UNIX version of the SETI@home client. It downloads radio telescope
+data from a network server, analyzes the data looking for signals of
+extraterrestrial origin, and uploads results to the server, repeating this
+cycle indefinitely. See http://setiahome.ssl.berkeley.edu for more
+information.
+.Pp
+The first time you run
+.Nm
+it will interactively ask you for email address, name, country etc. This
+info is stored in a file and no interaction is needed when you run the
+program subsequently.
+.Pp
+After this you can run
+.Nm
+in the background, and direct its output to /dev/null if you like.
+.Pp
+.Nm
+can be freely aborted and restarted. It saves its state in files,
+and will pick up where it left off.
+.Pp
+If you wish
+.Nm
+to be started automatically, you may wish to setup a cron job. The supplied
+script "set_cron_job" will create a script for running setiathome and add it
+to your crontab. To use it, change to your
+.Nm
+directory and type "./set_cron_job" at the prompt. For more information on
+cron jobs see the crontab(1) manual page.
+.Pp
+.Nm
+requires about 0.5\ MBytes of disk space in it's working directory, and about
+12\ MBytes of memory. If you have ample physical memory, it's work load
+should be almost undetectable.
+.Sh OPTIONS
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl login
+Login or create new account.
+.It Fl countries
+Show list of country codes.
+.It Fl version
+Show software version
+.It Fl nice Ar N
+Set "nice" priority to
+.Ar N
+(default 1);
+.It Fl email
+Send email (to login email address) on errors. Useful if you run in
+background directed to /dev/null.
+.El
+.Pp
+.Sh FILES
+The program generates several files with .txt extension
+in the directory from which it's run.
+These should not be modified.
+.Pp
+If you want to run multiple instances of setiathome
+(on a multiprocessor machine, or on multiple machines
+that share a filesystem) each one must be run
+in a different directory.
+.Pp
+setiathome uses a lock file (lock.txt) to prevent
+multiple instances from running in the same directory.
+.Sh AUTHORS
+SETI@home was developed by David Anderson, Jeff Cobb, Charlie
+Fenton, David Gedye, Kyle Granger, Eric Korpela, Matt Lebofsky,
+Peter Leiser, Brad Silen, Woody Sullivan, and Dan Werthimer.

+SETI@home is a scientific experiment that will harness the power of
+hundreds of thousands of Internet-connected computers in the Search for
+Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). You can participate by running a
+program that downloads and analyzes radio telescope data. There's a
+small but captivating possibility that your computer will detect the
+faint murmur of a civilization beyond Earth.
+
+This package includes an interactive install script which allows you to
+set up a working directory under /var/db/setiathome, register with or
+log in to SETI@home, and arranges for setiathome to be started at
+system start-up. In this case, setiathome will be executed as user
+`nobody'.
+
+setiathome will run at nice level 1 by default, with a single process.
+If you are running a SMP system and therefore would like to run one
+process per CPU, or would like setiathome to run under another user ID,
+you have to set it up manually.
+
+setiathome requires about 0.5 MBytes disk space in its working
+directory, and about 12 MBytes of memory. If you have ample physical
+memory, it's work load should be almost undetectable.
+
+setiathome is a binary distribution currently available for FreeBSD
+2.2.6, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, and 3.1. Newer versions of FreeBSD should be able
+to run older binaries.
