+.SH NAME
+hotshot2calltree \- convert hotshot profiling data to KCachegrind calltree format
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B hotshot2calltree
+[ \fB\-\-file\-limit\fP \fIlimit\fP ]
+\fB\-o\fP \fIoutput\fP \fIinput\fP [ \fIinput\fP ... ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBhotshot2calltree\fP reads one or more pstat profiling data files
+as output by the hotshot python profiler, and converts them into
+calltree format for use by KCachegrind.
+.PP
+This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+\fB\-o\fP \fIoutput\fP
+Write the calltree output into the given file for use by KCachegrind.
+This may be \fB\-\fP if you wish to write to standard output.
+.TP
+\fIinput\fP ...
+Read the hotshot profiling data from the given file(s).
+.TP
+\fB\-\-file\-limit\fP \fIlimit\fP
+Stop after the given number of input files.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+Suppose that you have used hotshot to profile a python app, with results
+dumped to the file \fIpythongrind.prof\fP. You may then work with this
+data in KCachegrind as follows.
