+<h1>CheckResolv</h1>
+
+<p>
+This is a <i>quick'n'dirty</i> tool for checking the configuration
+of your local resolver and/or DNS configuration. See the
+included manpage and source code for more explanations.
+</p>
+
+<h2>options</h2>
+
+<dl>   <dt>-V <dd>display version number and exit.
+       <dt>-h <dd>brief help on the command-line options.
+       <dt>-v <dd>display various useless messages.
+       <dt>-r <dd>do reverse lookup on IP address discovered.
+       <dt>-e <dd>show content of a few environment var resolver-related.
+       <dt>-t <dd>compute elapsed time of operation, not really accurate.
+</dl>
+
+<hr>
+<p>
+This software use only basic functions like <i>gethostbyname(3)</i>
+or <i>gethostbyaddr(3)</i>. Checkresolv use the more low-level
+of the resolver galaxy, so it works like any &quot;lambda&quot;
+application. Really nice when you have to catch a mysterious
+failure in a <small>LAMBDA</small> software.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The environmemt variable <tt>CHECKRESOLV</tt> control the verbosity.
+A value of <tt>tech</tt> add the display of reverse lookup and timings.
+And setting to <tt>all</tt> give you all the bells'n'whistles needed
+by geeks.
