+<h1> The <tt>s6-fdholder-delete</tt> program </h1>
+
+<p>
+<tt>s6-fdholder-delete</tt> connects to a
+<a href="s6-fdholderd.html">fd-holding daemon</a> listening on a
+Unix domain socket, and deletes a file descriptor from the
+daemon storage.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Interface </h2>
+
+<pre>
+     s6-fdholder-delete [ -t <em>timeout</em> ] <em>path</em> <em>id</em>
+</pre>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> s6-fdholder-delete executes into <tt><a href="s6-ipcclient.html">s6-ipcclient</a> <em>path</em>
+<a href="s6-fdholder-deletec.html">s6-fdholder-deletec</a> <em>id</em> </tt>.
+It does nothing else: it is just a convenience program.
+The <a href="s6-ipcclient.html">s6-ipcclient</a> program connects
+to a Unix socket at <em>path</em>, and the
+<a href="s6-fdholder-deletec.html">s6-fdholder-deletec</a> program
+sends instruction to the server. </li>
+ <li> It should be used to connect to a
+<a href="s6-fdholderd.html">s6-fdholderd</a> daemon, which will receive
+the instruction to close and remove the file descriptor identified
+by <em>id</em>. </li>
+ <li> It then exits 0. </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2> Options </h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <tt>-t&nbsp;<em>timeout</em></tt>&nbsp;: if the operation cannot be
+processed in <em>timeout</em> milliseconds, then fail with an error message.
+Communications with the server should be near-instant, so this option is
+only here to protect users against programming errors (connecting to the
+wrong socket, for instance). </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2> Usage example </h2>
+
+<pre>
+   s6-fdholder-delete /service/fdholderd/s MYSOCKET
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+ will tell a
+s6-fdholderd daemon listening on the <tt>/service/fdholderd/s</tt>
+socket to close the filedescriptor identified as MYSOCKET.
