+      <p>sesutil(8) was originally created as a more universal way to blink the
+	&quot;locate&quot; LEDs on most hot-swappable drive enclosures.</p>
+
+      <p>This work is based on the original SES tools created by Matthew Jacob in
+	2000, which have been available in the share/examples section of the
+	source tree, but were not compiled by default.</p>
+
+      <p>The new utility extends the original code with a number of very useful
+	features:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>Print a map of all objects connected to the SES controller</li>
+	<li>Map device names (/dev/da5) to SES slot number</li>
+	<li>Blink the Locate and/or Fault LED of a drive by its SES slot number
+	  or device name</li>
+	<li>Check the status of the entire SES controller</li>
+      </ul>
