.RI [\-file:]file
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B z3
command.

.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
.\" respectively.
\fBz3\fP Z3 is a state-of-the art theorem prover from Microsoft Research. It can
be used to check the satisfiability of logical formulas over one or more
theories. Z3 offers a compelling match for software analysis and verification
tools, since several common software constructs map directly into supported
theories.
.SH Input format
.TP
.B \-smt
Use parser for SMT input format.
.TP
.B \-smt2
Use parser for SMT 2 input format.
.TP
.B \-dl

.TP
.B \-nw
Disable warning messages.
.TP
.B \-p
Display Z3 global (and module) parameters.
.TP
.B \-pd
Display Z3 global (and module) parameter descriptions.
.TP
.B \-pm:name
Display Z3 module <name> parameters.
.TP
.B \-pp:name
Display Z3 parameter description, if <name> is not provided, then all module
names are listed.
.TP
.B \-\-
All remaining arguments are assumed to be part of the input file name. This
option allows Z3 to read files with strange names such as: \-foo.smt2.
