 .SH DESCRIPTION
-\fIMhparam\fR writes the value of the specified profile component to the
-standard output separated by newlines.  If the profile component is not
-present, the default value (or nothing if there is no default) is printed.
-
-If the switch `\-component' is given, then the component name is displayed
+.B mhparam
+writes the value of the specified profile component to the standard
+output separated by newlines.  Component name matching is
+case-insensitive.  If the profile component is not present, the
+default value (or nothing if there is no default) is printed.
+.PP
+If the switch
+.B \-component
+is given, then the component name is displayed
 along with the profile components value.  This can be disabled with the
-switch `\-nocomponent'.
-
-If more than one component is specified in the `components' list, then
-the switch `\-component' is on by default.  If only one component is
-specified, then the switch `\-nocomponent' is on by default.
-
-If `\-all' is specified, then all components in the nmh profile are
+switch
+.BR \-nocomponent .
+.PP
+If more than one component is specified in the
+.I components
+list, then
+the switch
+.B \-component
+is on by default.  If only one component is
+specified, then the switch
+.B \-nocomponent
+is on by default.
+.PP
+If
+.B \-all
+is specified, then all components in the nmh profile are
 displayed and other arguments are ignored.
-
+.PP
+.BR mhparam
+can provide other information, such as
+the locations of the nmh
+.I etcdir
+and
+.I libdir
+install directories and all
+.I proc
+settings.  The
+.B \-debug
+switch displays all such other information available from
+.BR mhparam .
