                     28: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     29: .I Timedc
                     30: is used to control the operation of the \fItimed\fP program.
                     31: It may be used to:
                     32: .IP \(bu
                     33: measure the differences between machines' clocks,
                     34: .IP \(bu
                     35: find the location where the master time server is running,
                     36: .IP \(bu
                     37: enable or disable tracing of messages received by \fItimed\fP, and
                     38: .IP \(bu
                     39: perform various debugging actions.
                     40: .PP
                     41: Without any arguments,
                     42: .I timedc
                     43: will prompt for commands from the standard input.
                     44: If arguments are supplied,
                     45: .IR timedc
                     46: interprets the first argument as a command and the remaining
                     47: arguments as parameters to the command.  The standard input
                     48: may be redirected causing
                     49: .I timedc
                     50: to read commands from a file.
