+<title>Description</title>
+
+<para><command>fixincludes</command> tries to reduce the number of
+#includes in C++ source files. Much of it's processing is specific to
+&kde; sources and so it might not work so well with sources for
+non-&kde; applications.</para>
+
+<para>The following problems are identified by <command>fixincludes</command>:</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem>
+<para>Including headers that are no longer supported but which exist for compatibility with older Qt/KDE versions;</para>
+</listitem>
+<listitem>
+<para>Including the same file multiple times. </para>
+</listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>There is also an experimental mode which tries removing each
+#include one at a time (with a few exceptions) to see whether the
+source still compiles. Note that this experimental mode will modify
+the original sources. </para>
+
+<para>By default the sources will not be modified; the identified
+problems will simply be written to standard output. </para>
+
+<para>The list of C++ sources to examine should be given on the
+command-line. If no files are given, all C++ sources in or beneath the
+current directory will be examined (with the exception of directories
+whose <filename>Makefile.am</filename> contains
+<option>-UQT_NO_COMPAT</option> or
+<option>-UKDE_NO_COMPAT</option>)</para>
+
+<para>This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit. </para>
