+.SH NAME
+gdc \- grand digital clock (curses)
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B gdc
+[-n] [
+[-s] [
+.I n
+]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Gdc
+runs a digital clock made of reverse-video blanks on a terminal screen.
+If the terminal supports color, the clock is drawn in red.
+You can make the clock stop, pause or resume by pressing a ``q'',
+``s'' or space, respectively.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B -n
+redirects input to /dev/null, making it ignore the stop/pause commands.
+You can still stop it by pressing the interrupt key.
+.TP
+.B -s
+makes digits scroll as they change.
+When running on a fast display, the program breaks up the scrolling into
+subsecond repaints, making the operation appear smooth.
+.PP
+With an optional numeric argument
+.I num
+it stops after
+.I num
+seconds.
+Normally it runs "forever" (counting down from 2 billion seconds).
+.SH AUTHOR
+Amos Shapir, modified for curses by John Lupien.
+Improvements for ncurses by Thomas Dickey.
