   Parse XML files from The Sports Network feed.
 description:
-  Parse XML files from The Sports Network feed.
+  The Sports Network <http://www.sportsnetwork.com/> offers an XML feed
+  containing various sports news and statistics. The goal of /htsn/
+  is to watch the XML feed and parse the individual XML documents into
+  files.
+  .
+  Once started, we will choose an XML feed host to connect to. The
+  choice is made from a list in a round-robin fashion, and by default,
+  the list contains all known TSN feed hosts. Once we have a connection,
+  your username and password are sent. If they are accepted, we begin to
+  parse the feed saving all XML files to the configured output directory.
+  .
+  If we encounter an error (say, the connection is dropped), then we
+  will attempt to connect to the next host in the list after waiting
+  five seconds. This process continues indefinitely.
+  .
+  The program can run either interactively (that is, outputting to the
+  console), or as a daemon.
+  .
+  /Full documentation can be found in the included man page./
