+Description: Perform simple operations on SysV semaphores.
+ The sema program performs simple operations on (System V-style) semaphores.
+ It's not intended to be a utility for general-purpose hacking on existing
+ semaphores, but rather a tool for doing synchronization between shell
+ scripts or other simple programs.
