 Client-side replay does what it says on the tin: you provide a previously saved
 HTTP conversation, and mitmproxy replays the client requests one by one. Note
 that mitmproxy serializes the requests, waiting for a response from the server
 before starting the next request. This might differ from the recorded
 conversation, where requests may have been made concurrently.

+__mitmdump__ is the command-line companion to mitmproxy. It provides
+tcpdump-like functionality to let you view, record, and programmatically
+transform HTTP traffic. See the _--help_ flag ouptut for complete
+documentation.
+
+
+
+## Example: saving traffic
+
+    mitmdump -w outfile
+
+Start up mitmdump in proxy mode, and write all traffic to __outfile__. 
+
+
+## Example: client replay
+
+    mitmdump -nc outfile
+
+Start mitmdump without binding to the proxy port (_-n_), then replay all
+requests from outfile (_-c filename_). Flags combine in the obvious way, so
+you can replay requests from one file, and write the resulting flows to
+another:
+
+    mitmdump -nc srcfile -w dstfile
+
+See the [Client-side Replay](@!urlTo("clientreplay.html")!@) section for more information.
+
+
+## Example: running a script
+
+    mitmdump -s examples/add_header.py
+
+This runs the __add_header.py__ example script, which simply adds a new header
+to all responses.
+
+
+## Example: scripted data transformation
+
+    mitmdump -ns examples/add_header.py -r srcfile -w dstfile
+
+This command loads flows from __srcfile__, transforms it according to the
+specified script, then writes it back to __dstfile__.

+

+pattern tells __mitmproxy__ to intercept all requests. For complete filter

+document, or the built-in help function in __mitmproxy__.

+
+### 3: You can now view and modify the request:
+
+<img src="@!urlTo('intercept-options.png')!@"/>
+
+In this case, we viewed the request by selecting it, pressed _e_ for "edit"
+and _m_ for "method" to change the HTTP request method.
+
+### 4: Accept the intercept to continue
+
+<img src="@!urlTo('intercept-result.png')!@"/>
+
+Finally, we press _a_ to accept the modified request, which is then sent on to
+the server. In this case, we changed the request from an HTTP GET to to
+OPTIONS, and Google's server has responded with a 405 "Method not allowed".
