+.SH EXAMPLES
+Review card status:
+ prism2dl -s wlan0
+
+Load a new PDA:
+ prism2dl -p pdafile.txt wlan0
+ or
+ prism2dl -p pdafile.txt -a pda1.txt -a pda2.txt wlan0
+
+ Note that the f/w images will most likely contain bogus plug info after
+ rewriting the PDA by itself. It is generally recommended to reload the
+ primage and secondary images at the same time as modifying the PDA.
+
+Load a FLASH image _and_ PDA:
+ prism2dl -p pdafile.txt -f CIS.hex -f primary.hex -f secondary.hex wlan0
+
+Load a RAM image:
+ prism2dl -a pda1.txt -r tertiary.hex
+
+Note: PDA records are additive starting with the records from the card
+ OR the records from the -p specified file. -a specified file(s)
+ overwrite, append, or remove records one at a time. If multiple
+ files are specified using the -a option, the files are processed
+ from left to right. This implies that a record removed from the
+ current working PDA may then be added again by a record that
+ appears after the "remove" record in the file set.
