     1.4 +Help2man is a tool for automatically generating simple manual pages
     1.5 +from program output.
     1.6 +
     1.7 +Although manual pages are optional for GNU programs other projects,
     1.8 +such as Debian require them (see Man Pages in GNU Coding Standards).
     1.9 +
    1.10 +This program is intended to provide an easy way for software authors
    1.11 +to include a manual page in their distribution without having to
    1.12 +maintain that document.
    1.13 +
    1.14 +Given a program which produces reasonably standard "--help" and
    1.15 +"--version" outputs, help2man can re-arrange that output into
    1.16 +something which resembles a manual page.
