+.SH "NAME"
+doxygen2man \- A tool to generate man pages from Doxygen XML files
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.B doxygen2man [OPTIONS] <XML file>
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.P
+This is a tool to generate API manpages from a doxygen-annotated header file
+First run doxygen on the file and then run this program against the main XML file
+it created and the directory containing the ancilliary files. It will then
+output a lot of *.3 man page files which you can then ship with your library.
+.P
+You will need to invoke this program once for each .h file in your library,
+using the name of the generated .xml file. This file will usually be called
+something like <include-file>_8h.xml, eg qbipcs_8h.xml
+.P
+If you want HTML output then simpy use nroff on the generated files as you
+would do with any other man page.
