+==========
+
+NAME
+----
+httrcall - Call transient ashd handlers
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+*httrcall* [*-h*] 'PROGRAM' ['ARGS'...]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+*httrcall* is a persistent handler, as defined in *ashd*(7), but works
+by starting a specified transient handler for every incoming
+request. Thus, it can be used to run transient handlers where normally
+only persistent handlers are accepted, such as for the program
+specified to *accesslog*(1), *htextauth*(1) or even *htparser*(1).
+
+The transient handler to call is specified by the 'PROGRAM'
+argument. Any 'ARGS' given are prepended to the usual arguments for
+transient handlers, as described in *ashd*(7).
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+*-h*::
+
+	Print a brief help message to standard output and exit.
