Descriptions I added are from usage() in main.c. Please elaborate on them more in the man page if you are more familiar with them. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Patch attached with submission follows: --- usr.sbin/wpa/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.8.orig 2012-09-18 13:05:26.000000000 -0700 +++ usr.sbin/wpa/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.8 2012-09-18 13:46:39.000000000 -0700 @@ -87,40 +87,52 @@ .Sh OPTIONS The following options are available: .Bl -tag -width indent +.It Fl b +Optional bridge interface name. +.It Fl B +Detach from the controlling terminal and run as a daemon process +in the background. .It Fl d Enable debugging messages.
