Oh, there's nothing wrong with socat's documentation. It's just that if you print the manpage out it's 40 pages long. It has *so many* options that trying to find the one you want is quite painful, even though they're all fairly regular. The options had to be classified along multiple dimensions to make sense of them...

(I picked Emacs for a reason: it too has excellent documentation and is huge.)
