+.SH NAME
+as \- assembler
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B as
+[
+.B \-d124
+] [
+.B \-L
+] [
+.B \-o
+objfile ] [ name ... ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I As
+assembles the named files, or the standard input if no file name is specified.
+The optional argument
+.B \-d
+may be used to specify the number of bytes to be assembled for offsets
+which involve forward or external references, which have sizes unspecified
+in the assembly language.
+The default is four bytes,
+i.e.,
+.B \-d4 \&.
+All undefined symbols in the assembly
+are treated as global.
+Normally all labels which begin with a `L' are discarded to save space in
+the resultant output file; the compilers generate such temporary labels.
+The
+.B \-L
+option causes these labels to not be discarded.
+.PP
+The output of the assembly is left on the file
+.I objfile;
+if that is omitted,
+.I a.out
+is used.
