 .SH DESCRIPTION
 .ft R
-Behaves like MPI_Waitsome, except that it returns immediately. If no operation has completed it returns outcount = 0. If there is no active handle in the list, it returns outcount = MPI_UNDEFINED.
+Behaves like MPI_Waitsome, except that it returns immediately.
+.sp
+Returns in outcount the number of requests from the list
+array_of_requests that have completed. Returns in the first outcount
+locations of the array array_of_indices the indices of these
+operations (index within the array array_of_requests; the array is
+indexed from 0 in C and from 1 in Fortran). Returns in the first
+outcount locations of the array array_of_status the status for these
+completed operations. If a request that completed was allocated by a
+nonblocking communication call, then it is deallocated, and the
+associated handle is set to MPI_REQUEST_NULL.
+.sp
+If no operation has completed it returns outcount = 0. If there is no
+active handle in the list, it returns outcount = MPI_UNDEFINED.
 .sp
 MPI_Testsome is a local operation, which returns immediately, whereas MPI_Waitsome blocks until a communication completes, if it was passed a list that contains at least one active handle. Both calls fulfill a fairness requirement: If a request for a receive repeatedly appears in a list of requests passed to MPI_Waitsome or MPI_Testsome, and a matching send has been posted, then the receive will eventually succeed unless the send is satisfied by another receive; send requests also fulfill this fairness requirement.
