+.Nd The Lemon Parser Generator
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl bcgmqsx
+.Ar input
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+is an LALR(1) parser generator for C or C++.
+It does the same job as bison and yacc.
+But
+.Nm
+is not another bison or yacc clone.
+It uses a different grammar syntax which is designed to reduce the number of coding errors.
+.Nm
+also uses a more sophisticated parsing engine that is faster than yacc and bison
+and which is both reentrant and thread-safe.
+Furthermore,
+.Nm
+implements features that can be used to eliminate resource leaks,
+making is suitable for use in long-running programs such as graphical user interfaces or embedded controllers.
+.Pp
+.Nm
+will read the grammer from
+.Ar input
+and write out a parser for that grammar in the C language.
