+.SH NAME
+axohelp - helper program for use of LaTeX package axodraw2 with
+pdflatex.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B axohelp [options] [filename]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Axohelp is a program used with the axodraw2, which is a LaTeX package
+for drawing Feynman graphs (and some other simple graphics) in LaTeX
+documents.
+
+When the axodraw2 package is used with pdflatex (or lualatex or
+xelatex) it creates a file with extension .ax1. This contains
+specifications of the graphics elements. Axohelp converts this to a
+file with extension ax2 that contains the necessary pdf code.
+The .ax2 file is read by pdflatex (etc) on its next run, and the
+contents of the .ax2 file are used in the final .pdf output file to
+draw the desired graphics.
+
+The files processed are specified as follows: When the filename on the
+command line is of the form file.ax1, then the input file is file.ax1
+and the output file is file.ax2. If the filename on the command line
+does not have extension .ax1, then this extension is appended.
+
+
