+.SH INTERPRETING THE OUTPUT
+Each cell in the output table will contain one of the following symbols:
+.IP \(bu "\w'\(bu'u+1n"
+"XX". The address was probed but no chip answered.
+.IP \(bu
+"UU". Probing was skipped, because this address is currently in use by
+a driver. This strongly suggests that there is a chip at this address.
+.IP \(bu
+An address number in hexadecimal, e.g. "2d" or "4e". A chip
+was found at this address.
