+.SH NAME
+seaudit \- SELinux graphical audit log analysis tool
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B seaudit
+[OPTIONS] [POLICY ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.B seaudit
+allows the user to view and filter the contents of a log file.
+.B seaudit
+supports the syslog and auditd log formats and provides queries to inspect the SELinux policy based on log messages.
+.SH POLICY
+.PP
+.B
+seaudit
+supports loading a SELinux policy in one of four formats.
+.IP "source"
+A single text file containing policy source for versions 12 through 21. This file is usually named policy.conf.
+.IP "binary"
+A single file containing a monolithic kernel binary policy for versions 15 through 21. This file is usually named by version - for example, policy.20.
+.IP "modular"
+A list of policy packages each containing a loadable policy module. The first module listed must be a base module.
+.IP "policy list"
+A single text file containing all the information needed to load a policy, usually exported by SETools graphical utilities.
+.PP
+If no policy file is provided,
+.B
+seaudit
+will search for the system default policy: checking first for a source policy, next for a binary policy matching the running kernel's preferred version, and finally for the highest version that can be found.
+If no policy can be found,
+.B
+seaudit
+will begin with no policy loaded.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP "-l FILE, --log=FILE"
+Upon startup, open the log FILE instead of the system log file.
+.IP "-h, --help"
+Print help information and exit.
+.IP "-V, --version"
+Print version information and exit.
