+.SH NAME
+listbas \- List the source of a tokenized Atari 8-bit BASIC program
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+listbas [\fB\-v\fP] [\fB\-i\fP] \fBinput\-file\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+\fBlistbas\fP acts like the \fILIST\fP command in BASIC. It reads a
+tokenized (SAVEd) BASIC program and prints the code in human\-readable
+format.
+.sp
+By default, output is piped through \fBa8eol\fP(1), to convert ATASCII
+characters to human\-readable sequences. Raw ATASCII and Unicode output
+are also available.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.SS List options
+.INDENT 0.0
+.TP
+.B \fB\-i\fP
+Include the immediate mode command (line 32768) in the output.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-a\fP
+Output raw ATASCII; no translation to the host character set. Must be
+used with redirection; \fBlistbas\fP will not write ATASCII to the terminal.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-u\fP
+Use \fBa8utf8\fP(1) to translate ATASCII to ASCII. Requires \fBa8utf8\fP
+somewhere in \fIPATH\fP\&.
+.UNINDENT
+.SS General Options
+.INDENT 0.0
+.TP
+.B \fB\-\-help\fP
+Print usage message and exit.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-\-version\fP
+Print version number and exit.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-v\fP
+Verbose operation. When displaying a number in verbose mode, it will
+be prefixed with \fI$\fP if it\(aqs in hex, or no prefix for decimal.
+.UNINDENT
+.SH NOTES
+.sp
+\fBlistbas\fP is similar to Jindroush\(aqs \fBchkbas\fP\&. The main differences are:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.IP \(bu 2
+\fBlistbas\fP only supports Atari BASIC, not Turbo BASIC or BASIC XL/XE.
+.IP \(bu 2
+\fBlistbas\fP doesn\(aqt show information about the variables. Use \fBvxrefbas\fP
+for that.
+.IP \(bu 2
+\fBlistbas\fP will not write ATASCII data to your terminal. Instead, it uses
+\fBa8eol\fP or \fBa8utf8\fP to convert the output to something human\-readable
+that won\(aqt confuse the terminal.
+.IP \(bu 2
+\fBlistbas\fP only includes line 32768 (the immediate mode command) if
+specifically asked to do so.
+.UNINDENT
+.SH EXIT STATUS
+.sp
+0 for success, 1 for failure.
