complete with programs to facilitate its operation by desktop users.

+A tomb is like a locked folder that can be safely transported and
+hidden in a filesystem; its keys can be kept separate, for instance
+keeping the tomb file on your computer harddisk and the key files on a
+USB stick.
+When specified, \fIfile\fR is the name of the tomb to be created or
+opened, while \fImountpoint\fR is an existing directory where its
+contents should be made accessible.
-.SH OPTIONS
+For simplified use, the command \fItomb-open\fR can be used to start a
+wizard that guides users in the creation of a new tomb or, if the
+\fIfile\fR argument is specified, to open a tomb and make it
+accessible in a default location under the /media folder.
+
+The other commands \fItomb-status\fR and \fItomb-askpass\fR are mostly
+for internal use (they are called by tomb with the right arguments)
+and serve the purpose of communicating with the user via the graphical
+interface.
