+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+*rhdropbox* is a small daemon which can be used to watch one or more 
+directories for new files. When a new file is detected a external program. 
+Additional directories can be added to the damons watch list using a simple
+unix socket based command interface.
+
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+The following options can be passed to the *rhdropbox* daemon:
+
+*-D, --nodaemonize*::
+   This option instructs *rhdropbox* to run in foreground
+   instead of becoming a daemon which is the default.
+
+*-u, --username <username>*::
+   run as this user. If no group is specified (*-g*) the default group of 
+   the user is used. The default is to not drop privileges.
+
+*-g, --groupname <groupname>*::
+   run as this group. If no username is specified (*-u*) this gets ignored.
+   The default is to not drop privileges.
+
+*-C, --chroot <path>*::
+   Instruct *rhdropbox* to run in a chroot jail. The default is 
+   to not run in chroot.
+
+*-P, --write-pid <filename>*::
+   Instruct *rhdropbox* to write it's pid to this file. The default is 
+   to not create a pid file.
+
+*-L, --log <target>:<level>[,<param1>[,<param2>[..]]]*::
+   add log target to logging system. This can be invoked several times
+   in order to log to different targets at the same time. Every target 
+   hast its own log level which is a number between 0 and 5. Where 0 means
+   disabling log and 5 means debug messages are enabled. +
+   The file target can be used more the once with different levels.
+   If no target is provided at the command line a single target with the 
+   config *syslog:3,uanytun,daemon* is added. +
+   The following targets are supported:
+
+   *syslog*;; log to syslog daemon, parameters <level>[,<logname>[,<facility>]]
+   *file*;; log to file, parameters <level>[,<path>]
+   *stdout*;; log to standard output, parameters <level>
+   *stderr*;; log to standard error, parameters <level> 
+
+*-s|--command-sock <unix sock>*::
+   *rhdropbox* will listen on this unix socket for incoming commands. See next
+   chapter for details. The default is /var/run/rhdropbox/cmd.sock
+
+*-x|--script <script>*::
+   The script which should be called when a new file is found. The following parameter
+   are passed to the scipt:
+
+   *<path>*;; the path to the folder containing the new file
+   *<filename>*;; the name of the new file relative to <path>
+   *<filesize>*;; the size of the file right after the event was received, this can be
+                  used to determine wheter the file is complete. The script should
+                  consider a file to be complete when it size doesn't change 3-5seconds
+                  after the event got received.
+
+
+COMMAND INTERFACE
+-----------------
+
+*rhdropbox* is listening for incoming commands at the unix socket speciefied by the 
+-s|--command-sock parameter. You can connect to this socket for example using
+socat:
+
+ # socat UNIX-CONNECT:/var/run/rhdropbox/rhdropbox.sock STDIO
+
+All commands have to end with '\n'. The following commands are supported:
+
+*add <path>*::
+   Add a path to the list of directories to be watched. If the command succeds nothing
+   is returned. In case of an error a string of the form "Error: <reason>\n" is returned.
+
+*remove <path>*::
+   Remove the path from the list of directories. If the command succeds nothing
+   is returned. In case of an error a string of the form "Error: <reason>\n" is returned.
+
+*status*::
+   Returns the complete list of all directories from the wath list.
+
+*listen [request|status|none]*::
+   Add the client to the status and or request listeners. When no parameter is passed to
+   this command the client listens to all messages. 
+   A status listener gets a list of all directories whenever somebody else adds or removes
+   a path to the watch list. It also receives the list when somebody sends a status command
+   to the daemon. 
+   A request listener also receives add and remove requests by other clients connected to
+   the command interface.
+
+*log <text>*::
+   Print <text> to the logtargets of the daemon.
+
