+.IP \fB-addlist\ \fIfilename\ \fRor\ \fB-al\ \fIfilename\fR

of them will be displayed.
-.IP \fB-lists\ \fRor\ \fB-l\fR:
+.IP \fB-lists\ \fRor\ \fB-l\fR
Only display list members that are lists (not users or strings). If
none of \fB-users, -lists, -strings, \fRor \fB-kerberos\fR is specified, then all
of them will be displayed.
-.IP \fB-strings\ \fRor\ \fB-s\fR:

the intermediate lists.
-.IP \fB-verbose\ \fRor\ \fB-v\fR:
+.IP \fB-verbose\ \fRor\ \fB-v\fR
Give more information. With the info flag, it will also display the
number of members on the list. With the members flag, it will display
the type of each member, not just those that are ambiguous. When
changing the membership of a list, it will print a message for each
member added or deleted.
-.IP \fB-noauth\ \fRor\ \fB-n\fR:
+.IP \fB-noauth\ \fRor\ \fB-n\fR
Do not attempt to perform Kerberos authentication with the Moira server.

+.IP \fB-database\ \fIhost:port\ \fRor\ \fB-db\ \fIhost:port\fR

+below.

+Rename the list to the new name.
+.IP \fB-public\ \fR(\fB-P\fR)\ \fRor\ \fB-private\ \fR(\fB-NP\fR)

+to the mailhubs and fileservers.)
+.IP \fB-visible\ \fR(\fB-V\fR)\ \fRor\ \fB-hidden\ \fR(\fB-H\fR)

+Toggle whether or not the list is a mailing list.
+.IP \fB-group\ \fR(\fB-G\fR)\ \fRor\ \fB-notgroup\ \fR(\fB-NG\fR)

+ACLs of directories in AFS.)
+.IP \fB-nfsgroup\ \fR(\fB-N\fR)\ \fRor\ \fB-notnfs\ \fR(\fB-NN\fR)
+Toggle whether or not the list is an NFS group. (NFS groups are
+included in a user's hesiod group list and in Moira-generated NFS

+except that list owners can never be strings.
+.IP \fB-memacl\ \fImembership_acl\ \fRor\ \fB-MA\ \fImembership_acl\fR
+Set the mebership acl of the list; members of this acl will be allowed
+to add and remove members of the list, but not update any other
+characteristics. The membership acl is specified like a list member,
+except that it can never be a string.
+To return a list to having default membership access control
+conditions, set the membership acl to "NONE".

+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+The exit status from blanche is not as useful as you might hope. An
+exit status of 2 indicates a problem contacting the server or reading
+an input file. An exit status of 1 indicates that at least one add or
+delete failed, and an exit status of 0 indicates that all adds and
+deletes succeeded. If you need the exit status to be meaningful, you
+should only do one add or delete at a time.

.SH NOTES
The listname doesn't actually have to be the first argument, but if
you put it anywhere else, it's easy to get the other arguments in the
