+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+g-octave [options] <package_name | package_name-version>
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+g-octave is a tool that generates and installs ebuilds for Octave-Forge
+packages "on-the-fly" to Gentoo Linux, using Portage. It's capable to
+generate ebuilds and Manifest files for the packages, and to install
+them using an autogenerated overlay (named g-octave). g-octave can also
+handle patches to the packages automatically. The command line interface
+tries to be very similar to the interface of the emerge(1) tool.
+
+At this moment g-octave depends on the Portage package manager to works,
+but the support to Paludis and pkgcore is planned.
+
