+.Os Rep 2.3
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm repc
+.Nd compiler for the 
+.Xr rep 1
+scripting language
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl rp
+.Op Fl z Ar buffsize
+.Ar script
+.Ar outfile
+.Nm 
+.Fl d
+.Ar script
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The 
+.Nm
+command compiles 
+.Xr rep 1
+scripts into an byte code format. This speeds up execution as compilation is not
+required at run time. Also useful when using the 
+.Xr rlib 3
+library.
+.Pp
+.Ar script 
+is compiled into 
+.Ar output .
+The 
+.Fl z
+and 
+.Fl p
+options are stored with the compiled script, and will be used as defaults when the 
+script is executed.
+.Sh OPTIONS
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width Fl
+.It Fl d
+Dump dissassembled byte code.
+.It Fl p
+Default to parse mode. When the script is executed only replaments 
+will be written out, rather than unreplaced text.
+.It Fl r
+Compile into raw byte code format. For use with the 
+.Xr rlib 3
+library. Any options are not stored with the code.
+.Xr rep 3
+cannot read this format.
+.It Fl z
+Set the default buffer size to 
+.Ar buffsize 
+and store it along with the compiled script. See
+.Xr rep 1
+for a description of the buffer size.
+.Sh NOTE
+The
+.Nm 
+command uses 
+.Xr getopt 3
+to parse it's arguments, which allows it to accept 
+the 
+.Sq Li --
+option which will stop processing of flag options at that point. This allows
+the processing of files with names that begin with a dash
+.Pq Sq - .
