+.SH NAME
+docker \- Docker image and container command line interface
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B docker [OPTIONS] [COMMAND] [arg...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBdocker\fR has two distinct functions. It is used for starting the Docker daemon and to run the CLI (i.e., to command the daemon to manage images, containers etc.) So \fBdocker\fR is both a server as deamon and a client to the daemon through the CLI.
+.sp
+To run the Docker deamon you do not specify any of the commands listed below but must specify the \fB-d\fR option. The other options listed below are for the daemon only.
+.sp
+The Docker CLI has over 30 commands. The commands are listed below and each has its own man page which explain usage and arguements.
+.sp
+To see the man page for a command run \fBman docker <command>\fR.
