+    <p>The following options are supported (note that most of these relate 
+    to the compilation of the MIB file):</p>
+    <taglist>
+      <tag>--help</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>Prints help info.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--version</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>Prints application and mib format version.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--verbosity <em>verbosity</em></tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>Print debug info. </p>
+	<p><c>verbosity</c> = <c>trace</c> | <c>debug</c> | <c>log</c> | <c>info</c> | <c>silence</c></p>
+	<p>Defaults to <c>silence</c>.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--warnings</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>Print warning messages. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--o <em>directory</em></tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>The directory where the compiler should place the output files.
+	If not specified, output files will be placed in the current working
+	directory.</p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--i <em>Directory</em></tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>Specifies the path to search for imported (compiled) MIB files. 
+	By default, the current working directory is always included. </p>
+	<p>This option can be present several times, each time specifying
+	<em>one</em> path. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--il <em>Directory</em></tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>This option (include_lib), specifies a list of directories to 
+	search for imported MIBs. It assumes that the first element in 
+	the directory name corresponds to an OTP application. The compiler 
+	will find the current installed version. For example, the value 
+	["snmp/mibs/"] will be replaced by ["snmp-3.1.1/mibs/"] (or what 
+	the current version may be in the system). The current directory 
+	and the "snmp-home"/priv/mibs/ are always listed last in the
+        include path. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--sgc</tag>
+      <item>
+	<p>This option (skip group check), if present, disables the 
+	group check of the mib compiler. 
+	That is, should the OBJECT-GROUP and the NOTIFICATION-GROUP 
+	macro(s) be checked for correctness or not. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--dep</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>Keep deprecated definition(s). 
+	If not specified the compiler will ignore deprecated definitions. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--desc</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>The DESCRIPTION field will be included. </p>

+      <item>
+        <p>The module which implements all the instrumentation functions. </p>
+	<p>The name of all instrumentation functions must be the 
+	same as the corresponding managed object it implements. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--nd</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>The default instrumentation functions will <em>not</em> be
+	used if a managed object have no instrumentation function.
+	Instead this will be reported as an error, and the compilation 
+	aborts. </p>
+      </item>
+
+      <tag>--rrnac</tag>
+      <item>
+        <p>This option, if present, specifies that the row name assign check 
+	shall not be done strictly according to the SMI (which allows only 
+	the value 1). </p>
+	<p>With this option, all values greater than zero is allowed (>= 1). 
+	This means that the error will be converted to a warning. </p>
+	<p>By default it is not included, but if this option is present 
+	it will be. </p>
