+.SH NAME
+lsns \- list namespaces
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B lsns
+[options]
+.RI [ namespace ]
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B lsns
+lists information about all the currently accessible namespaces or about the
+given \fInamespace\fP. The \fInamespace\fP identifier is an inode number.
+
+The default output is subject to change. So whenever possible, you should
+avoid using default outputs in your scripts. Always explicitly define expected
+columns by using the \fB\-\-output\fR option together with a columns list in
+environments where a stable output is required.
+
+\fBNSFS\fP column, printed when \fBnet\fP is specified for
+\fB\-\-type\fR option, is special; it uses multi-line cells.
+Use the option \fB\-\-nowrap\fR is for switching to "," separated single-line
+representation.
+
+Note that \fBlsns\fR reads information directly from the /proc filesystem and
+for non-root users it may return incomplete information. The current /proc
+filesystem may be unshared and affected by a PID namespace
+(see \fBunshare \-\-mount\-proc\fP for more details).
+.B lsns
+is not able to see persistent namespaces without processes where the namespace
+instance is held by a bind mount to /proc/\fIpid\fR/ns/\fItype\fR.
