 .Sh DESCRIPTION
 The
 .Nm
-utility will factor integers between -2147483648 and 2147483647 inclusive.
-When a number is factored, it is printed, followed by a 
-.Dq \: ,

+utility factors integers larger than 1.
+When a number is factored, it is printed, followed by a
+.Dq \&: ,
+and the list of
+.Pq prime
+factors on a single line.
 Factors are listed in ascending order, and are preceded by a space.
-If a factor divides a value more than once, it will be printed

+If a factor divides a value more than once, it will be printed more than once.

 Leading white-space and empty lines are ignored.
-Numbers may be preceded by a single - or +.
+Numbers may be preceded by a single +.
+Integer less than 2 are rejected.
 Numbers are terminated by a non-digit character (such as a newline).
 After a number is read, it is factored.

+.Pq Note however that very large values can take a very long time to factor.
+If

+Out of range or invalid input results in
