+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Mkpaqfs
+copies files from the file tree
+.I source
+(default
+.BR . )
+to a the
+.IR paqfs (4)
+file system archive
+.IR file .
+.PP
+The files and directory structure are divided into
+.I blocksize
+(default
+.BR 4096 )
+byte blocks.
+Larger blocks make large files more compact but take longer to access.
+.I Blocksize
+must be in the range of 512 bytes to 52K bytes.
+If the
+.B -u
+option is set, the blocks are not compressed.
+Otherwise each block is compressed using the
+.IR flate (2)
+compression algorithm.
+The
+.B -l
+option embeds a label of up to 32 bytes within the file header and may be
+useful for identifying the file system.
