+.SH NAME
+kig \- an interactive geometry program for KDE
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B kig
+.RI "[ " generic-options " ]"
+[ \fIURL\fP ]
+.br
+.B kig \-c, \-\-convert\-to\-native
+[ \fB\-o, \-\-outfile\fP \fInative-file\fP ]
+\fIfile\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBKig\fP is an application for interactive geometry. It is intended to
+serve two purposes:
+.PP
+.RS
+\- to allow students to interactively explore mathematical figures and
+concepts using the computer;
+.PP
+\- to serve as a WYSIWYG tool for drawing mathematical figures and
+including them in other documents.
+.RE
+.PP
+With this program you can do geometry on a computer just like you would
+on a blackboard in a classroom. However, the program allows you to move
+and change parts of a geometrical drawing so that you can see how the other
+parts change as a result.
+.PP
+Kig supports loci and user-defined macros. It also supports imports
+and exports to/from foreign file formats including Cabri, Dr. Geo, KGeo,
+KSeg and XFig.
+.PP
+This application is part of the official KDE edutainment module.
+.SH OPTIONS
+Below are the kig-specific options.
+For a full summary of options, run \fIkig \-\-help\fP.
+.TP
+.B \-c, \-\-convert\-to\-native
+Do not show a GUI. Instead, convert the specified file to the native
+Kig format. The native Kig file will be written to standard output
+unless \-\-outfile is passed (see below).
+.TP
+\fB\-o, \-\-outfile\fP \fInative-file\fP
+Used with \-\-convert\-to\-native to specify where to save the newly
+created Kig file. Note that a filename of '\-' means standard
+output (which is also the default).
+.SH SEE ALSO
+Full user documentation is available through the KDE Help Centre.
+You can also enter the URL
+\fIhelp:/kig/\fP
+directly into konqueror or you can run
+`\fIkhelpcenter help:/kig/\fP'
+from the command-line.
+.PP
+If the KDE Help Centre is not installed then you can install the package
+\fIkdeedu-doc-html\fP and read this documentation in HTML format from
+\fI/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kig/\fP.
