.SH NAME
slave \- a semi-interactive interactive command for the dirty work
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B slave
[ \fIcommand\fP ]
.br
.B slave
-f
.SH DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the \fIslave\fP command is to do all those small
things around the computer that one never finds the time for.
.LP
One typical use for the \fIslave\fP command is to change the toner in
one's laser printer. The interface for the \fIslave\fP command is kept
simple, mainly to keep down the complexity of the internal parser.
.SH THE OPTION
.TP
\-\fIf\fP
Send a rapid succession of \fISIHUP\fPs to \fIslave\fP, mainly used
when one needs to blow off a little steam.
.SH THE COMMANDS
Almost any phrase in pidgin English is acceptable input to the
\fIslave\fP program, but care should be taken to keep grammatical
structure on an easy level, so not to confuse the poor program.
.SH BUGS
This program violates many standards and ethics, most notably the UN's
Human Rights (as if they were extendable to programs...)
