+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBgentdmconf\fP is used to generate configuration files for \fBtdm\fP.
+.br
+If an older xdm/tdm configuration is found, its config files are "absorbed";
+if it lives in the new target directory, its scripts are reused (and possibly
+modified) as well, otherwise the scripts are ignored and default scripts are
+installed.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.BI \-\-in \ /path/to/new/tdm\-config\-dir
+In which directory to put the new configuration. You can use this to support a $(DESTDIR), but not to change the final location of the installation \- the paths inside the files are not affected.
+.br
+Default is \fI/etc/trinity/tdm\fP.
+.TP
+.BI \-\-old\-xdm \ /path/to/old/xdm\-dir
+Where to look for the config files of an \fBxdm\fP / older \fBtdm\fP. Default is to scan
+.IR /etc/X11/tdm , \ $XLIBDIR/tdm , \ /etc/X11/xdm , \ $XLIBDIR/xdm ;
+there in turn look for \fItdm\-config\fP and \fIxdm\-config\fP.
+.br
+Note that you possibly need to use \fB\-\-no\-old\-kde\fP to make this take effect.
+.TP
+.BI \-\-old\-kde \ /path/to/old/kde\-config\-dir
+Where to look for the \fItdmrc\fP of an older \fBtdm\fP.
+.br
+.RI Default\ is\ to\ scan\ /etc/trinity \ and\ { /usr,/usr/local ,
+.RI { /opt,/usr/local }{ trinity,kde,kde2,kde1 }} /share/config .
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-old
+Don't look at older xdm/tdm configurations, just create default config.
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-old\-xdm
+Don't look at older xdm configurations.
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-old\-kde
+Don't look at older tdm configurations.
+.TP
+.B \-\-old\-scripts
+Directly use all scripts from the older xdm/tdm configuration.
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-old\-scripts
+Don't use scripts from the older xdm/tdm configuration even if it lives in the new target directory.
+.TP
+.B \-\-old\-confs
+Directly use all ancillary config files from the older xdm/tdm configuration. This is usually a bad idea.
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-backup
+Overwrite/delete old config files instead of backing them up.
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-in\-notice
+Don't put the notice about \fB\-\-in\fP being used into the generated README.
