+.SH NAME
+vmcore-dmesg
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B vmcore-dmesg
+.RI " vmcore"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
+.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
+.\" respectively.
+\fBvmcore-dmesg\fP extracts the dmesg from a vmcore and write it to
+standard out. \fBvmcore-dmesg\fP works against either
+\fB/proc/vmcore\fP in a crash dump capture context or a copy
+of \fB/proc/vmcore\fP that has been saved for later analysis. A
+single build of \fBvmcore-dmesg\fP should work against any linux
+vmcore written created on any architecture.
+
+.\"These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
+.\"options starting with two dashes (`-').
+.\"A summary of options is included below.
+.\"For a complete description, see the Info files.
