+.TH UUID 3 "May 2009" "util-linux" "Libuuid API"
+.SH NAME
+uuid \- DCE compatible Universally Unique Identifier library
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <uuid.h>
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The UUID library is used to generate unique identifiers for objects
+that may be accessible beyond the local system.  This library
+generates UUIDs compatible with those created by the Open Software
+Foundation (OSF) Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) utility
+.BR uuidgen .
+.sp
+The UUIDs generated by this library can be reasonably expected to be
+unique within a system, and unique across all systems.  They could
+be used, for instance, to generate unique HTTP cookies across multiple
+web servers without communication between the servers, and without fear
+of a name clash.
+.SH "CONFORMING TO"
+OSF DCE 1.1
+.SH AUTHOR
+Theodore Y.\& Ts'o
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+.B libuuid
+is part of the util-linux package since version 2.15.1 and is available from
+ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
