+hostname(1)
+```````````
+
+The hostname(1) utility returns the current host and/or domain name for the
+presently running operating environment. It additionally allows a superuser
+to set the host and/or domain name.
+
+This utility is not present in POSIX®, but is needed for setting the host
+name on Adélie system startup, and is generally useful.
+
+This implementation has been tested on Linux and Darwin. It has most of the
+Linux net-tools short flags, but does not presently support long flags.
