+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm

+.Op Fl d
+.Op Fl h
+.Ar flags
+.Ar
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility modifies the file flags of the listed files
+as specified by the
+.Ar flags
+operand.
+.Pp
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width Fl
+.It Fl d
+If the change requested would not alter the
+flags currently set for
+.Ar file
+then attempt no change operation.
+.It Fl H
+If the
+.Fl R
+option is specified, symbolic links on the command line are followed.
+Symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal are not followed.
+.It Fl h
+If the
+.Ar file
+or a file encountered during directory traversal is a symbolic link,
+the file flags of the link itself are changed.
+.It Fl L
+If the
+.Fl R
+option is specified, all symbolic links are followed.
+.It Fl P
+If the
+.Fl R
+option is specified, no symbolic links are followed.
+.It Fl R
+Change the file flags for the file hierarchies rooted
+in the
+.Ar file\^ Ns s
+instead of just the
+.Ar file\^ Ns s
+themselves.
+.El
+.Pp
+Flags are a comma separated list of keywords.
+The following keywords are currently defined:
+.\" XXX: list the actual chflags(2) macro names
+.Bl -column -offset indent ".Sy Keyword" "system append-only"
+.It Sy Keyword Ta Sy Flag Ta Sy Permission
+.It Li arch Ta archived Ta super-user only
+.It Li opaque Ta opaque Ta owner or super-user
+.It Li nodump Ta nodump Ta owner or super-user
+.It Li sappnd Ta system append-only Ta super-user only
+.It Li schg Ta system immutable Ta super-user only
+.It Li uappnd Ta user append-only Ta owner or super-user
+.It Li uchg Ta user immutable Ta owner or super-user
+.El
+.Pp
+Putting the letters
+.Sq Cm no
+before a keyword causes the flag to be turned off.
+For example,
+.Li nouchg
+requests the immutable bit should be cleared.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl H ,
+.Fl L
+and
+.Fl P
+options are ignored unless the
+.Fl R
+option is specified.
+In addition, these options override each other and the
+command's actions are determined by the last one specified.
+The default is as if the
+.Fl P
+option had been specified.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl o
+option
+of
+.Xr ls 1
+is used to display the flags.
+.Pp
+The kernel does not allow the flags on block and character
+devices to be changed except by the super-user.
+.Pp
+Note that the ability to clear certain flags is
+dependent on the current kernel
+.Va securelevel .
+See
+.Xr secmodel_securelevel 9
+for details.
