+.SH DESCRIPTION
+If one has previously loaded a local Name Space using
+.BR pmLoadNameSpace (3)
+or
+.BR pmLoadASCIINameSpace (3),
+then calling
+.BR pmUnloadNameSpace (3)
+will free up the memory associated with the Name Space and force all
+subsequent PMNS routine calls to use the distributed PMNS.
+If
+.BR pmUnloadNameSpace (3)
+is called before calling
+.BR pmLoadNameSpace (3)
+or
+.BR pmLoadASCIINameSpace (3),
+then it will effectively do nothing.
