+# NAME
+
+relcool - A release assembler for erlang
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+relcool [*options*] [*release-specification-file*]
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Reltool assembles releases for an Erlang/OTP release. Given a release
+specification and a list of directories in which to search for OTP
+applications it will generate a release output. That output depends
+heavily on what plugins available and what options are defined, but
+usually it is simple a well configured release directory.
+
+ relcool --relname foo --relvsn 0.0.1 --target-spec myapp --target-spec getopt>=0.5.1 -o output-dir --targz
+
+The *release-specification-file* is optional but otherwise contains
+additional specification information for releases.
+
