+.SH XML SCHEMA UPDATES
+.P
+If a new tag is added to an XML document type, \fBhtsn-import\fR will
+most likely refuse to parse it, since the new documents no longer
+match the existing DTD.
+.P
+The first thing to do in that case is add the unparseable document to
+the \(dqschemagen\(dq directory, and generate a new DTD that matches
+both the old and new samples. Once a new, correct DTD has been
+generated, it should be added to the \(dqschema\(dq directory. Then,
+the parser can be updated and \fBhtsn-import\fR rebuilt.
+.P
+At this point, \fBhtsn-import\fR should be capable of importing the
+new document. But the addition of the new tag will most require new
+fields in the database. Fortunately, easy migrations like this are
+handled automatically. As an example, at one point, \fIOdds_XML.dtd\fR
+did not contain the \(dqHStarter\(dq and \(dqAStarter\(dq elements
+associated with its games. Suppose we parse one of the old documents
+(without \(dqHStarter\(dq and \(dqAStarter\(dq) using an old version
+of \fBhtsn-import\fR:
+.P
+.nf
+.I $ htsn-import --connection-string='foo.sqlite3' \\\\
+.I " schemagen/Odds_XML/19996433.xml"
+Migration: CREATE TABLE \(dqodds\(dq ...
+Successfully imported schemagen/Odds_XML/19996433.xml.
+Processed 1 document(s) total.
+.fi
+.P
+At this point, the database schema matches the old documents, i.e. the
+ones without \fIAStarter\fR and \fIHStarter\fR. If we use a new
+version of \fBhtsn-import\fR, supporting the new fields, the migration
+is handled gracefully:
+.P
+.nf
+.I $ htsn-import --connection-string='foo.sqlite3' \\\\
+.I " schemagen/Odds_XML/21315768.xml"
+Migration: ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq
+ ADD COLUMN \(dqaway_team_starter_id\(dq INTEGER;
+Migration: ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq
+ ADD COLUMN \(dqaway_team_starter_name\(dq VARCHAR;
+Migration: ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq
+ ADD COLUMN \(dqhome_team_starter_id\(dq INTEGER;
+Migration: ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq
+ ADD COLUMN \(dqhome_team_starter_name\(dq VARCHAR;
+Successfully imported schemagen/Odds_XML/21315768.xml.
+Processed 1 document(s) total.
+.fi
+.P
+If fields are removed from the schema, then manual intervention may be
+necessary:
+.P
+.nf
+.I $ htsn-import -b Postgres -c 'dbname=htsn user=postgres' \\\\
+.I " schemagen/Odds_XML/19996433.xml"
+ERROR: Database migration: manual intervention required.
+The following actions are considered unsafe:
+ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq DROP COLUMN \(dqaway_team_starter_id\(dq
+ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq DROP COLUMN \(dqaway_team_starter_name\(dq
+ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq DROP COLUMN \(dqhome_team_starter_id\(dq
+ALTER TABLE \(dqodds_games\(dq DROP COLUMN \(dqhome_team_starter_name\(dq
+
+ERROR: Failed to import file schemagen/Odds_XML/19996433.xml.
+Processed 0 document(s) total.
+.fi
+.P
+To fix these errors, manually invoke the SQL commands that were
+considered unsafe:
+.P
+.nf
+.I $ psql -U postgres -d htsn \\\\
+.I " -c 'ALTER TABLE odds_games DROP COLUMN away_team_starter_id;'"
+ALTER TABLE
+.I $ psql -U postgres -d htsn \\\\
+.I " -c 'ALTER TABLE odds_games DROP COLUMN away_team_starter_name;'"
+ALTER TABLE
+.I $ psql -U postgres -d htsn \\\\
+.I " -c 'ALTER TABLE odds_games DROP COLUMN home_team_starter_id;'"
+ALTER TABLE
+.I $ psql -U postgres -d htsn \\\\
+.I " -c 'ALTER TABLE odds_games DROP COLUMN home_team_starter_name;'"
+ALTER TABLE
+.fi
+.P
+After manually adjusting the schema, the import should succeed.
+
+.SH XML SCHEMA ODDITIES
+.P
+There are a number of problems with the XML on the wire. Even if we
+construct the DTDs ourselves, the results are sometimes
+inconsistent. Here we document a few of them.
+
+.IP \[bu] 2
+\fIOdds_XML.dtd\fR
+
+The <Notes> elements here are supposed to be associated with a set of
+<Game> elements, but since the pair
+(<Notes>...</Notes><Game>...</Game>) can appear zero or more times,
+this leads to ambiguity in parsing. We therefore ignore the notes
+entirely (although a hack is employed to facilitate parsing). The same
+thing goes for the newer <League_Name> element.
+
+.IP \[bu]
+\fIweatherxml.dtd\fR
+
+There appear to be two types of weather documents; the first has
+<listing> contained within <forecast> and the second has <forecast>
+contained within <listing>. While it would be possible to parse both,
+it would greatly complicate things. The first form is more common, so
+that's all we support for now. An example is provided as
+schemagen/weatherxml/20143655.xml.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+
+.IP \fB\-\-backend\fR,\ \fB\-b\fR
+The RDBMS backend to use. Valid choices are \fISqlite\fR and
+\fIPostgres\fR. Capitalization is important, sorry.
+
+Default: Sqlite
+
+.IP \fB\-\-connection-string\fR,\ \fB\-c\fR
+The connection string used for connecting to the database backend
+given by the \fB\-\-backend\fR option. The default is appropriate for
+the \fISqlite\fR backend.
+
+Default: \(dq:memory:\(dq
+
+.IP \fB\-\-log-file\fR
+If you specify a file here, logs will be written to it (possibly in
+addition to syslog). Can be either a relative or absolute path. It
+will not be auto-rotated; use something like logrotate for that.
+
+Default: none
+
+.IP \fB\-\-log-level\fR
+How verbose should the logs be? We log notifications at four levels:
+DEBUG, INFO, WARN, and ERROR. Specify the \(dqmost boring\(dq level of
+notifications you would like to receive (in all-caps); more
+interesting notifications will be logged as well. The debug output is
+extremely verbose and will not be written to syslog even if you try.
+
+Default: INFO
+
+.IP \fB\-\-remove\fR,\ \fB\-r\fR
+Remove successfully processed files. If you enable this, you can see
+at a glance which XML files are not being processed, because they're
+all that should be left.
+
+Default: disabled
+
+.IP \fB\-\-syslog\fR,\ \fB\-s\fR
+Enable logging to syslog. On Windows this will attempt to communicate
+(over UDP) with a syslog daemon on localhost, which will most likely
+not work.
+
+Default: disabled
+
+.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
+.P
+Any of the command-line options mentioned above can be specified in a
+configuration file instead. We first look for \(dqhtsn-importrc\(dq in
+the system configuration directory. We then look for a file named
+\(dq.htsn-importrc\(dq in the user's home directory. The latter will
+override the former.
+.P
+The user's home directory is simply $HOME on Unix; on Windows it's
+wherever %APPDATA% points. The system configuration directory is
+determined by Cabal; the \(dqsysconfdir\(dq parameter during the
+\(dqconfigure\(dq step is used.
+.P
+The file's syntax is given by examples in the htsn-importrc.example file
+(included with \fBhtsn-import\fR).
+.P
+Options specified on the command-line override those in either
+configuration file.
+
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.IP \[bu] 2
+Import newsxml.xml into a preexisting sqlite database named \(dqfoo.sqlite3\(dq:
+
+.nf
+.I $ htsn-import --connection-string='foo.sqlite3' \\\\
+.I " test/xml/newsxml.xml"
+Successfully imported test/xml/newsxml.xml.
+Imported 1 document(s) total.
+.fi
+.IP \[bu]
+Repeat the previous example, but delete newsxml.xml afterwards:
+
+.nf
+.I $ htsn-import --connection-string='foo.sqlite3' \\\\
+.I " --remove test/xml/newsxml.xml"
+Successfully imported test/xml/newsxml.xml.
+Imported 1 document(s) total.
+Removed processed file test/xml/newsxml.xml.
+.fi
+.IP \[bu]
+Use a Postgres database instead of the default Sqlite. This assumes
+that you have a database named \(dqhtsn\(dq accessible to user
+\(dqpostgres\(dq locally:
+
+.nf
+.I $ htsn-import --connection-string='dbname=htsn user=postgres' \\\\
+.I " --backend=Postgres test/xml/newsxml.xml"
+Successfully imported test/xml/newsxml.xml.
