+<H3>NAME</H3><TT>llvm-abcd</TT>
+<H3>SYNOPSIS</H3><TT>llvm-abcd [options] [filename]</TT>
+<H3>DESCRIPTION</H3>The <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> command is a small utility for analyzing
+bytecode files. The <TT>abcd</TT> acronym stands for <u>a</u>nalysis of
+<u>b</u>yte<u>c</u>ode <u>d</u>isplayer. The tool reads a bytecode file (such as
+generated with the <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> tool) and produces statistical and low level
+bytecode format dumps. This tool is probably not of much interest or utility except
+for those working directly with the bytecode format. Most LLVM users can just ignore
+this tool.
+<P>If filename is omitted or is -, then <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> reads its input from
+standard input. This is useful for combining <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> in a pipeline.
+<P>
+<H3>OPTIONS</H3>
+<UL>
+ <LI>-nodetails <BR>Causes <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> to abbreviate its output by writing
+ out only a module level summary. The details for individual functions are not
+ displayed.
+ <P></P>
+ <LI>-dump <BR>Causes <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> to dump the bytecode in a human readable
+ format. This format is significantly different from LLVM assembly and provides
+ details about the encoding of the bytecode file.
+ <P></P>
+ <LI>-verify <BR>Causes <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> to verify the module produced by
+ by reading the bytecode. This ensures that the statistics generated are reliable.
+ <P></P>
+ <LI>-help <BR>Print a summary of command line options.
+ <P></P></LI></UL>
+<H3>EXIT STATUS</H3>If <TT>llvm-abcd</TT> succeeds, it will exit with 0.
+Otherwise, if an error occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value, usually 1.
