You are looking at the *source* code of a unix manual page. Please use "man -l flashrom.8" instead to read that file in a formatted way.

Thanks for the reply, but where is that?
Where is what? The file you quoted is included in the flashrom source code as "flashrom.8". If you have installed a flashrom binary from a distribution, the man page is already installed, and can be invoked by running "man flashrom". Be advised that the flashrom binary from debian stable ("lenny") is extremely outdated, though.

The following URL usually has a nicely formatted man page: http://www.flashrom.org/trac/flashrom/browser/trunk/flashrom.8
Unfortunately the groff utility is completely broken and does not handle UTF-8 characters natively. Our man page uses UTF-8 characters and that causes groff to explode before it renders the man page. I'll check if we can work around that.
