+.SH "NAME"
+binutils-config \- manage active versions of the binutils programs
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+The \fBbinutils-config\fR script allows you to switch between different 
+versions of binutils when you have installed multiple copies (see
+USE=multislot).  It also allows you to manage multiple cross-compiling
+targets simultaneously.
+
+Remember, you may have one version of binutils active per \fICTARGET\fR,
+and changing the version for one target has no bearing on any other.  So
+changing an active cross-compiler will not break your native compiler
+(i.e. \fICHOST\fR).
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+\fBbinutils-config\fR [\fIcrufty options\fR] \fIPROFILE\fR
+
+\fBbinutils-config\fR \fB--get-current-profile\fR \fI[TARGET]\fR

+\fBbinutils-config\fR \fB--list-profiles\fR

+.SH "GENERIC OPTIONS"
+.TP
+\fBPROFILE\fR
+Change the system to use the specified binutils version.  This may take the
+form of the list index number (the number shown on the left in the
+\fB\-\-list\-profiles\fR output), a full \fITARGET-VERSION\fR (useful when
+working with cross-compilers), just a \fITARGET\fR where the \fIVERSION\fR
+is picked from the active, or just a binutils \fIVERSION\fR where the
+\fITARGET\fR is assumed to be the native \fIHOST\fR value.
+.TP
+\fBTARGET\fR
+Similiar to \fBPROFILE\fR, but this is only the target and no version info
+(i.e. \fICTARGET\fR or \fICHOST\fR).
+.TP
+\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-get\-current\-profile\fR \fI[TARGET]\fR
+Display the active profile for \fITARGET\fR.  If none is specified, the 
+host system's \fITARGET\fR will be shown (i.e. \fICHOST\fR).
+.TP
+\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-list\-profiles\fR
+Show all the profiles that your system currently has installed and what
+versions are active.  The active native version is noted with a bright green
+asterisk while the active cross-compiler versions are noted with a light blue
+asterisk.
+.TP
+\fB-u\fR, \fB\-\-uninstall\fR \fITARGET\fR
+This is really for internal use only.  Used to remove all traces of the 
+\fITARGET\fR binutils from your system.
