-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Nm
-sets the user ID and/or the group ID of the specified files.
-Symbolic links named by arguments are silently left unchanged unless
-.Fl h
-is used.
-.Pp
-The options are as follows:
-.Bl -tag -width Ds
-.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 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 user ID and/or the group ID for the file hierarchies rooted
-in the files instead of just the files themselves.
-.It Fl f
-Do not report any failure to change file owner or group, nor modify
-the exit status to reflect such failures.
-.It Fl h
-If
-.Ar file
-is a symbolic link, the owner and/or group of the link is changed.
-.It Fl v
-Cause
-.Nm
-to be verbose, showing files as they are processed.
-.El
-.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 R
-option cannot be used together with the
-.Fl h
-option.
-.Pp
-The
-.Ar owner
-and
-.Ar group
-operands are both optional, however, one must be specified.
-If the
-.Ar group
-operand is specified, it must be preceded by a colon (``:'') character.
-.Pp
-The
-.Ar owner
-may be either a user name or a numeric user ID.
-The
-.Ar group
-may be either a group name or a numeric group ID.
-Since it is valid to have a user or group name that is numeric (and
-does not have the numeric ID that matches its name) the name lookup
-is always done first.
-Preceding an ID with a ``#'' character will force it to be taken
-as a number.
-.Pp
-The ownership of a file may only be altered by a super-user for
-obvious security reasons.
-.Pp
-Unless invoked by the super-user,
-.Nm
-clears the set-user-id and set-group-id bits on a file to prevent
-accidental or mischievous creation of set-user-id and set-group-id
-programs.
-.Sh EXIT STATUS
-.Ex -std chown
-.Sh COMPATIBILITY
-Previous versions of the
-.Nm
-utility used the dot (``.'') character to distinguish the group name.
-This has been changed to be a colon (``:'') character so that user and
-group names may contain the dot character.

-.Xr chflags 1 ,
-.Xr chgrp 1 ,
-.Xr find 1 ,
-.Xr chown 2 ,
-.Xr lchown 2 ,
-.Xr fts 3 ,
-.Xr symlink 7
-.Sh STANDARDS
-The
-.Nm
-command is specified by POSIX.1-2017.
-.Pp
-The
-.Fl v
-and
-.Fl f
-options and the use of ``#'' to force a numeric lookup
-are extensions to
-.St -p1003.2 .
-.Sh HISTORY
-A
-.Nm
-utility appeared in
-.At v1 .
