+.TH WRJPGCOM 1 "15 June 1995"
+.SH NAME
+wrjpgcom \- insert text comments into a JPEG file
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B wrjpgcom
+[
+.B \-replace
+]
+[
+.BI \-comment " text"
+]
+[
+.BI \-cfile " name"
+]
+[

+.LP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+.B wrjpgcom
+reads the named JPEG/JFIF file, or the standard input if no file is named,
+and generates a new JPEG/JFIF file on standard output.  A comment block is
+added to the file.
+.PP
+The JPEG standard allows "comment" (COM) blocks to occur within a JPEG file.
+Although the standard doesn't actually define what COM blocks are for, they
+are widely used to hold user-supplied text strings.  This lets you add
+annotations, titles, index terms, etc to your JPEG files, and later retrieve
+them as text.  COM blocks do not interfere with the image stored in the JPEG
+file.  The maximum size of a COM block is 64K, but you can have as many of
+them as you like in one JPEG file.
+.PP
+.B wrjpgcom
+adds a COM block, containing text you provide, to a JPEG file.
+Ordinarily, the COM block is added after any existing COM blocks; but you
+can delete the old COM blocks if you wish.
+.SH OPTIONS
+Switch names may be abbreviated, and are not case sensitive.
+.TP
+.B \-replace
+Delete any existing COM blocks from the file.
+.TP
+.BI \-comment " text"
+Supply text for new COM block on command line.
+.TP
+.BI \-cfile " name"
+Read text for new COM block from named file.
+.PP
+If you have only one line of comment text to add, you can provide it on the
+command line with
+.BR \-comment .
+The comment text must be surrounded with quotes so that it is treated as a
+single argument.  Longer comments can be read from a text file.
+.PP
+If you give neither
+.B \-comment
+nor
+.BR \-cfile ,
+then
+.B wrjpgcom
+will read the comment text from standard input.  (In this case an input image
+file name MUST be supplied, so that the source JPEG file comes from somewhere
+else.)  You can enter multiple lines, up to 64KB worth.  Type an end-of-file
+indicator (usually control-D) to terminate the comment text entry.
+.PP
+.B wrjpgcom
+will not add a COM block if the provided comment string is empty.  Therefore
+\fB\-replace \-comment ""\fR can be used to delete all COM blocks from a file.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.LP

+.IP

+.I in.jpg
+.B <
+.I comment.txt
+.B >
+.I out.jpg
+.PP

+.B -cfile
