+.SH NAME
+numfmt \- Convert numbers from/to human-readable strings
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B numfmt
+[\fI\,OPTION\/\fR]... [\fI\,NUMBER\/\fR]...
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.\" Add any additional description here
+.PP
+Reformat NUMBER(s), or the numbers from standard input if none are specified.
+.PP
+Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
+.TP
+\fB\-\-debug\fR
+print warnings about invalid input
+.TP
+\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-delimiter\fR=\fI\,X\/\fR
+use X instead of whitespace for field delimiter
+.TP
+\fB\-\-field\fR=\fI\,FIELDS\/\fR
+replace the numbers in these input fields (default=1)
+see FIELDS below
+.TP
+\fB\-\-format\fR=\fI\,FORMAT\/\fR
+use printf style floating\-point FORMAT;
+see FORMAT below for details
+.TP
+\fB\-\-from\fR=\fI\,UNIT\/\fR
+auto\-scale input numbers to UNITs; default is 'none';
+see UNIT below
+.TP
+\fB\-\-from\-unit\fR=\fI\,N\/\fR
+specify the input unit size (instead of the default 1)
+.TP
+\fB\-\-grouping\fR
+use locale\-defined grouping of digits, e.g. 1,000,000
+(which means it has no effect in the C/POSIX locale)
+.TP
+\fB\-\-header\fR[=\fI\,N\/\fR]
+print (without converting) the first N header lines;
+N defaults to 1 if not specified
+.TP
+\fB\-\-invalid\fR=\fI\,MODE\/\fR
+failure mode for invalid numbers: MODE can be:
+abort (default), fail, warn, ignore
+.TP
+\fB\-\-padding\fR=\fI\,N\/\fR
+pad the output to N characters; positive N will
+right\-align; negative N will left\-align;
+padding is ignored if the output is wider than N;
+the default is to automatically pad if a whitespace
+is found
+.TP
+\fB\-\-round\fR=\fI\,METHOD\/\fR
+use METHOD for rounding when scaling; METHOD can be:
+up, down, from\-zero (default), towards\-zero, nearest
+.TP
+\fB\-\-suffix\fR=\fI\,SUFFIX\/\fR
+add SUFFIX to output numbers, and accept optional
+SUFFIX in input numbers
+.TP
+\fB\-\-to\fR=\fI\,UNIT\/\fR
+auto\-scale output numbers to UNITs; see UNIT below
+.TP
+\fB\-\-to\-unit\fR=\fI\,N\/\fR
+the output unit size (instead of the default 1)
+.TP
+\fB\-z\fR, \fB\-\-zero\-terminated\fR
+line delimiter is NUL, not newline
+.TP
+\fB\-\-help\fR
+display this help and exit
+.TP
+\fB\-\-version\fR
+output version information and exit
+.SS "UNIT options:"
+.TP
+none
+no auto\-scaling is done; suffixes will trigger an error
+.TP
+auto
+accept optional single/two letter suffix:
+.IP
+1K = 1000,
+1Ki = 1024,
+1M = 1000000,
+1Mi = 1048576,
+.TP
+si
+accept optional single letter suffix:
+.IP
+1K = 1000,
+1M = 1000000,
+\&...
+.TP
+iec
+accept optional single letter suffix:
+.IP
+1K = 1024,
+1M = 1048576,
+\&...
+.TP
+iec\-i
+accept optional two\-letter suffix:
+.IP
+1Ki = 1024,
+1Mi = 1048576,
+\&...
+.SS "FIELDS supports cut(1) style field ranges:"
+.TP
+N
+N'th field, counted from 1
+.TP
+N\-
+from N'th field, to end of line
+.TP
+N\-M
+from N'th to M'th field (inclusive)
+.TP
+\fB\-M\fR
+from first to M'th field (inclusive)
+.TP
+\-
+all fields
+.PP
+Multiple fields/ranges can be separated with commas
+.PP
+FORMAT must be suitable for printing one floating\-point argument '%f'.
+Optional quote (%'f) will enable \fB\-\-grouping\fR (if supported by current locale).
+Optional width value (%10f) will pad output. Optional zero (%010f) width
+will zero pad the number. Optional negative values (%\-10f) will left align.
+Optional precision (%.1f) will override the input determined precision.
+.PP
+Exit status is 0 if all input numbers were successfully converted.
+By default, numfmt will stop at the first conversion error with exit status 2.
+With \fB\-\-invalid=\fR'fail' a warning is printed for each conversion error
+and the exit status is 2. With \fB\-\-invalid=\fR'warn' each conversion error is
+diagnosed, but the exit status is 0. With \fB\-\-invalid=\fR'ignore' conversion
+errors are not diagnosed and the exit status is 0.
