+
+@pindex truncate
+@cindex truncating, file sizes
+
+@command{truncate} shrinks or extends the size of each @var{file} to the
+specified size. Synopsis:
+
+@example
+truncate @var{option}@dots{} @var{file}@dots{}
+@end example
+
+@cindex files, creating
+Any @var{file} that does not exist is created.
+
+@cindex sparse files, creating
+@cindex holes, creating files with
+If a @var{file} is larger than the specified size, the extra data is lost.
+If a @var{file} is shorter, it is extended and the extended part (or hole)
+reads as zero bytes.
+
+The program accepts the following options. Also see @ref{Common options}.
+
+@table @samp
+
+@item -c
+@itemx --no-create
+@opindex -c
+@opindex --no-create
+Do not create files that do not exist.
+
+@item -o
+@itemx --io-blocks
+@opindex -o
+@opindex --io-blocks
+Treat @var{size} as number of I/O blocks of the @var{FILE} rather than bytes.
+
+@item -r @var{rfile}
+@itemx --reference=@var{rfile}
+@opindex -r
+@opindex --reference
+Set the size of each @var{file} to the same size as @var{rfile}.
+
+@item -s @var{size}
+@itemx --size=@var{size}
+@opindex -s
+@opindex --size
+Set the size of each @var{file} to this @var{size}.
+@var{size} is a number which may be followed by one of these
+multiplicative suffixes:
+@example
+@samp{KB} => 1000 (KiloBytes)
+@samp{K} => 1024 (KibiBytes)
+@samp{MB} => 1000*1000 (MegaBytes)
+@samp{M} => 1024*1024 (MebiBytes)
+@end example
+and so on for @samp{G}, @samp{T}, @samp{P}, @samp{E}, @samp{Z}, and @samp{Y}.
+
+@var{size} may also be prefixed by one of the following to adjust
+the size of each @var{file} based on their current size:
+@example
+@samp{+} => extend by
+@samp{-} => reduce by
+@samp{<} => at most
+@samp{>} => at least
+@samp{/} => round down to multiple of
+@samp{%} => round up to multiple of
+@end example
