+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+\fIircdwatch\fP is a daemon that periodically checks that the 
+\fIircd\fP daemon is running, restarting it of necessary.  This
+daemon can also be configured (at compile time) to check for
+changes to the \fIircd\fP configuration file and make \fIircd\fP
+reload its configuration file by sending it a SIGHUP signal.  
+.LP
+Given command line arguments \fIircdwatch\fP will serve as a remote
+control for stopping both \fIircdwatch\fP and \fIircd\fP or just
+\fIircdwatch\fP.
