-.TH BUS 5 BUS-%VERSION%
-.SH NAME
-bus - A simple daemonless system for broadcasting messages locally
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBbus\fP is a simple interprocess communication system for broadcasting
-messages to other processes on the same machine. \fBbus\fP does not use
-any daemon. Instead, all communication and synchronisation is managed
-using System V (XSI) semaphores and System V (XSI) shared memory.
-.PP
-The command \fBbus create\fP can be used to create new buses. By
-convention, buses should be stored in \fI$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus\fP, this is
-what \fBbus create\fP does if no pathname is given. The pathname of the
-bus should be tracked using \fIBUS_X\fP, where \fIX\fP is replaced with
-either:
-.TP
-.B GENERIC
-For the bus used in generic cases. That is all but the cases of the
-buses listed below.
-.TP
-.B AUDIO
-For the bus used in with the audio subsystem is involved.
-.TP
-.B VIDEO
-For the bus used in with the video subsystem is involved.
-.TP
-.B INPUT
-For the bus used in with the input subsystem is involved.
-.TP
-.B FILES
-For the bus used in with the storage subsystem is involved.
-.PP
-Messages broadcasted on a bus cannot be longer than 2047 bytes,
-excluding NULL termination. Message should be encoded in UTF-8,
-and most not contain the NULL character.
-.PP
-Broadcasted message should start with the process ID, or 0 if ephemeral,
-whence the message originated, followed by a single regular space.
