.SH NAME
kdemangen.pl \- automatically create a draft manpage for a TDE app
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B kdemangen.pl
.I /path/to/application
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBkdemangen.pl\fP will automatically create a draft manpage for a TDE
application.  Manpages are always better when hand-tailored, but this
should give you a fairly good start.
.PP
To create the manpage, it will use the \-\-author and \-\-help\-all
output for the application passed on the command line.
It will also use the description in the
Debian control file if one is available.  To make use of this additional
feature, you must run kdemangen.pl from within the \fIdebian/\fP
subdirectory of the application sources.
.PP
The new manpage will be written to standard output.
.PP
This utility is part of the TDE Software Development Kit.
.SH WARNING
This utility will only work for a full TDE application that uses
TDECmdLineArgs (which most full TDE applications do).
