+.Nm
+.Op Fl v
+.Fl l|r
+.Nm
+.Op Fl v
+.Ar <rc.d script> start|stop|etc.
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+command is an easy interface to the rc.d system.
+Its primary purpose is to start and stop services provided
+by the rc.d scripts, however it can also be used to list
+the scripts using various criteria.
+.Pp
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width F1
+.It Fl e
+List services that are enabled.
+The list of scripts to check is compiled using
+.Xr rcorder 8
+the same way that it is done in
+.Xr rc 8 ,
+then that list of scripts is checked for an
+.Qq rcvar
+assignment.
+If present the script is checked to see if it is enabled.
+.It Fl l
+List all files in
+.Pa /etc/rc.d
+and the local startup directories.
+As described in
+.Xr rc.conf 5
+this is usually
+.Pa /usr/local/etc/rc.d .
+All files will be listed whether they are an actual
+rc.d script or not.
+.It Fl r
+Generate the
+.Xr rcorder 8
+as in
+.Fl e
+above, but list all of the files, not just what is enabled.
+.It Fl v
+Be slightly more verbose
+.El
+.Sh EXIT STATUS
+.Ex -std
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+The following are examples of typical usage of the
+.Nm
+command:
+.Pp
+.Dl "service named status"
+.Dl "service -rv"
+.Pp
+The following programmable completion entry can be use in
+.Xr bash 1
+for the names of the rc.d scripts:
+.Dl "_service () {"
+.Dl "	local cur"
+.Dl "	cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}"
+.Dl "	COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W '$( service -l )' -- $cur ) )"
+.Dl "	return 0"
+.Dl "}"
