15.Sh DESCRIPTION
16.Nm
17provides access to the system configuration sets, commonly referred to as
18.Qq locations .
19When invoked with no arguments,
20.Nm
21displays the names and associated identifiers for each defined
22.Qq location
23and indicates which is currently active.
24.Nm
25also allows the user to select or change the active
