+.SH NAME
+setwatch, settime \- programs to send data to your Timex Datalink watch
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B setwatch
+.RI [ WATCH_TYPE ]\ [ OPTIONS ]\ [ DATAFILE ]
+.br
+.B settime
+.RI [ WATCH_TYPE ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page documents briefly the
+.B setwatch
+and
+.B settime
+commands.
+This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
+because the original programs do not have manual pages.
+.PP
+.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
+.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
+.\" respectively.
+\fBsetwatch\fP is the main program in the datalink suite that can send
+data to your Timex Datalink watch. It can send all types of data used
+by these watches.
+.PP
+\fBsettime\fP is a simple utility that will just update the time on your
+watch. It will only accept a watch-type argument (defaulting to
+-ironman) and sends just the time.
+.SH WATCH_TYPE
+.TP
+.B \-\-help
+Show summary of options.
+.TP
+.B \-ironman
+Use if you have an Ironman Datalink watch. This is the default.
+.TP
+.B \-70, \-\-model70
+Use if you have a model 70 watch.
+.TP
+.B \-150s, \-\-model150
+Use if you have a model 150 watch.
+.TP
+.B \-150, \-\-model150s
+Use if you have a model 150s watch.
+.SH OPTIONS
+Run "setwatch -help" for options summary.
+.SH DATAFILE
+By default, the datafile will be loaded from ~/.datalink/datafile. Just
+copy the example file (perhaps installed as /usr/doc/datalink/datafile?)
+to this location and edit it as you please before running setwatch.
+Note that if you specify no options, nothing will happen. Perhaps you
+want to try the -all option to start.
+.SH AUTHOR
+The original datalink software was written by Karl R. Hakimian.

+David Fries <dfries@mail.win.org> added support for the Ironman Datalink to
+the datalink software and now is the maintainer. http://datalink.fries.net/
