+.SH "NAME"
+tinyproxy \- A light\-weight HTTP proxy daemon
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+\fBtinyproxy\fR [\-vldch]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+\fBtinyproxy\fR is a light\-weight HTTP proxy daemon designed to consume a minimum amount of system resources\&. It listens on a given TCP port and handles HTTP proxy requests\&. Designed from the ground up to be fast and yet small, it is an ideal solution for use cases such as embedded deployments where a full featured HTTP proxy is required, but the system resources for a larger proxy are unavailable\&.
