+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <sys/acct.h>
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.IR acct (2)
+system call makes entries in an accounting file
+for each process that terminates.
+The accounting file is a sequence of entries whose layout,
+as defined by the include file is:
+.PP
+.nf
+.ta \w'typedef 'u +\w'ACOMPAT 'u +\w'ac_comm[10]; 'u
+.so /usr/include/sys/acct.h
+.fi
+.PP
+If the process does an
+.IR execve (2),
+the first 10 characters of the filename appear in
+.I ac_comm.
+The accounting flag contains bits indicating whether
+.IR execve (2)
+was ever accomplished, and whether the process ever had super-user privileges.
