+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBjack_property\fR can be used to list, set and delete any and all metadata associated with the ports
+and clients of a JACK server.
+.P
+There are three main ways to use the command. The \fB-l\fR option is used to list existing metadata. The \fB-s\fR option is used
+to set metadata. The \fB-d/-D\fR options are used to delete metadata.
+.P
+The \fIidentifier\fR is normally a UUID (UUIDs for ports and clients can be shown with jack_lsp(1)). If the \fB-c\fR option is used, then \fIidentifier\fR will
+be interpreted as a client name, and its UUID will be looked up internally and used for the relevant metadata operation. If the \fB-p\fR option is used, then \fIidentifier\fR will
+be interpreted as a port name and its UUID  will be looked up internally and used for the relevant metadata operation.
+.P
+The \fIkey\fR is an arbitary string that identifies the metadata to be operated upon.
+.P
+The \fIvalue\fR is an arbitrary string that defines the value of the metadata to be created.
+.P
+The \fItype\fR is an optional MIME type, given as a string. An empty type for a piece of metadata results in it being interpreted as "text/UTF-8".
