+.SH NAME
+autojump \- a faster way to navigate your filesystem
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.\" Syntax goes here. 
+.B j 
+dirspec
+.P
+.B jstat
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B autojump
+is a faster way to navigate your filesystem. It works by maintaining a database of the directories you use the most from the command line. The 
+.B jstat
+command shows you the current contents of the database. You need to work a little bit before the database becomes useable. Once your database is reasonably complete, you can "jump" to a directory by typing:
+.P
+.B j
+dirspec
+.P
+where dirspec is a few characters of the directory you want to jump to. It will jump to the most used directory whose name matches the pattern given in dirspec.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.B j
+mp3
+.P
+could jump to /home/gwb/my\ mp3\ collection, if that is the directory in which you keep your mp3s.
+.SH BUGS
+No known bugs at this time.
