+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+**btmgmt** [--options] [commands]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+**btmgmt(1)** interactive bluetooth management tool. The tool issues commands
+to the Kernel using the Bluetooth Management socket, some commands may require
+net-admin capability in order to work since the Bluetooth Management interface
+is considered a low-level interface meant for the likes of **bluetoothd(8)**,
+it is not recommended for applications to use it directly as it may result in
+unexpected behavior.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+:-i/--index: Specify adapter index
+:-m-/-monitor: Enable monitor output
+:-t/--timeout: Timeout in seconds for non-interactive mode
+:-v/--version: Display version
+:-i/--init-script: Init script file
+:-h/--help: Display help
+
+COMMANDS
+========
+
+:main: See **bluetoothctl-mgmt(1)**
+:monitor: See **bluetoothctl-monitor(1)**
+
+AUTOMATION
+==========
+
+Two common ways to automate the tool are to pass the commands directly like in
+the follow example:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+    btmgmt <<EOF
+    list
+    show
+    EOF
+
+Or create a script and pass it as init-script:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+    $ vi test-script.bt
+    list
+    show
+    quit
+    :wq
+    $ btmgmt --init-script=test-script
