+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+NVM\-Express is a fast, scalable host controller interface designed to address the needs for not only PCI Express based solid state drives, but also NVMe\-oF(over fabrics)\&.
+.sp
+This \fInvme\fR program is a user space utility to provide standards compliant tooling for NVM\-Express drives\&. It was made specifically for Linux as it relies on the IOCTLs defined by the mainline kernel driver\&.
+.SH "NVME COMMANDS"
+.sp
+The utility has sub\-commands for all admin and io commands defined in the specification and for displaying controller registers\&. There is also an option to submit completely arbitrary commands\&. For a list of commands available, run "nvme help"\&.
