+.SH NAME
+plpfuse \- Daemon to mount an EPOC device as a file system
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B plpfuse
+.B [-V]
+.B [-v]
+.B [-h]
+.BI "[-p [" host :] port ]
+.BI [ long-options ]
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+plpfuse is a file system which provides file system access to your EPOC device.
+It mounts the EPOC device's file systems in to your computer's file system.
+Like the other front-ends, this program
+auto-reconnects after a link-failure, so you can keep the
+EPOC device mounted all the time, even when it is not connected.
+Due to Rudolf Koenig's clever error-handling, you don't need to
+worry about blocked I/O-processes if the psion isn't available.
+You simply will get an "device not configured" error, when
+accessing a file on a previously connected psion which has been
+disconnected. After that, the mount-point will appear with the
+drives missing. As soon as the psion is connected again, the
+subdirectories will reappear (possibly with a few seconds' delay).
+
