+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This command is used to manipulate DH parameter files.
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<-help>
+
+Print out a usage message.
+
+=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
+
+This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded
+form compatible with the PKCS#3 DHparameter structure. The PEM form is the
+default format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64 encoded with
+additional header and footer lines.
+
+=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
+
+This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning as the
+B<-inform> option.
+
+=item B<-in> I<filename>
+
+This specifies the input filename to read parameters from or standard input if
+this option is not specified.
+
+=item B<-out> I<filename>
+
+This specifies the output filename parameters to. Standard output is used
+if this option is not present. The output filename should B<not> be the same
+as the input filename.
+
+=item B<-dsaparam>
+
+If this option is used, DSA rather than DH parameters are read or created;
+they are converted to DH format.  Otherwise, "strong" primes (such
+that (p-1)/2 is also prime) will be used for DH parameter generation.
+
+DH parameter generation with the B<-dsaparam> option is much faster,
+and the recommended exponent length is shorter, which makes DH key
+exchange more efficient.  Beware that with such DSA-style DH
+parameters, a fresh DH key should be created for each use to
+avoid small-subgroup attacks that may be possible otherwise.
+
+=item B<-check>
+
+Performs numerous checks to see if the supplied parameters are valid and
+displays a warning if not.
+
+=item B<-2>, B<-5>
+
+The generator to use, either 2 or 5. If present then the
+input file is ignored and parameters are generated instead. If not
+present but B<numbits> is present, parameters are generated with the
+default generator 2.
+
+=item B<-rand> I<file(s)>
+
+a file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
+generator, or an EGD socket (see L<RAND_egd(3)>).
+Multiple files can be specified separated by an OS-dependent character.
+The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
+all others.
+
+=item I<numbits>
+
+this option specifies that a parameter set should be generated of size
+I<numbits>. It must be the last option. If this option is present then
+the input file is ignored and parameters are generated instead. If
+this option is not present but a generator (B<-2> or B<-5>) is
+present, parameters are generated with a default length of 2048 bits.
+
+=item B<-noout>
+
+this option inhibits the output of the encoded version of the parameters.
+
+=item B<-text>
+
+this option prints out the DH parameters in human readable form.
+
+=item B<-C>
+
+this option converts the parameters into C code. The parameters can then
+be loaded by calling the get_dhNNNN() function.
+
+=item B<-engine id>
+
+specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<dhparam>
+to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
+thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
+for all available algorithms.
+

+
+=head1 WARNINGS
+
+The program B<dhparam> combines the functionality of the programs B<dh> and
+B<gendh> in previous versions of OpenSSL. The B<dh> and B<gendh>
+programs are retained for now but may have different purposes in future
+versions of OpenSSL.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+PEM format DH parameters use the header and footer lines:
+
+ -----BEGIN DH PARAMETERS-----
+ -----END DH PARAMETERS-----
+
+OpenSSL currently only supports the older PKCS#3 DH, not the newer X9.42
+DH.
+
+This program manipulates DH parameters not keys.
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+There should be a way to generate and manipulate DH keys.
