+NAME
+     holes – find runs of zero bytes
+
+SYNOPSIS
+     holes [-n minlen] [files ...]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+     holes looks for runs of zero bytes (a.k.a. holes) in the specified input
+     files (or the standard input), and prints the start adresses (in
+     hexadecimal) as well as the lengths (in decimal).  When multiple input
+     files are specified, holes prefixes each line with the file name.
+
+     By default, only holes of at least 64 bytes are reported.  This can be
+     changed using the -n option.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+     The holes utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
