+<h1> The <tt>execline-umask</tt> program </h1>
+
+<p>
+<tt>execline-umask</tt> sets the umask (file creation mask),
+then executes a program.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Interface </h2>
+
+<pre>
+     execline-umask <em>mask</em> <em>prog...</em>
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+<tt>execline-umask</tt> sets the current umask to <em>mask</em>,
+then execs into <em>prog...</em>.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Notes </h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li> By default, at execline installation time, a <tt>umask</tt>
+symbolic link is created, pointing to <tt>execline-umask</tt>.
+ <li> When execline has been configured with the <tt>--enable-pedantic-posix</tt>
+option, the <tt>umask</tt> symbolic link points to the
+<a href="posix-umask.html">posix-umask</a> binary instead. </li>
+ <li> Existing execline scripts calling <tt>umask</tt> will keep working
+no matter the chosen configuration. </li>
+</ul>
