NAME
       fan - turn the fan on/off on a Toshiba Pentium(tm) laptop

SYNOPSIS
       fan [ -fnatds ]

DESCRIPTION
       fan prints the current status of the internal fan on any Toshiba laptop
       or notebook computer with a Pentium  or	better	processor,  optionally

       are logged via syslogd(8).  For laptops without a fan, a suitable error
       message is provided.

       ing a number of MS-DOS programs provided by Toshiba.
