+.. mysql2sql documentation master file, created by
+   sphinx-quickstart on Fri Jul 22 19:32:24 2016.
+   You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
+   contain the root `toctree` directive.
+
+Welcome to mysql2sql's documentation!
+=====================================
+
+This is mysql2sql, a mysql to sql converter. It is primary intended to
+convert mysqldump (especially with extended INSERT syntax) to standard
+SQL to load at least to PostgreSQL or SQLite.
+
+The program is in its initial phase and currently cannot do much.
+
+.. highlight:: none
+
+Command line
+------------
+
+mysql2sql
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+Usage::
+
+    mysql2sql [-e encoding] [-E output_encoding] [infile] [[-o] outfile]
+
+Options::
+
+    -e ENCODING, --encoding ENCODING
+                           input/output encoding, default is utf-8
+    -E OUTPUT_ENCODING, --output-encoding OUTPUT_ENCODING
+                           separate output encoding, default is the same as
+                           `-e` except for console; for console output charset
+                           from the current locale is used
+    -P, --no-pbar          Inhibit progress bar
+    infile                 Input file, stdin if absent or '-'
+    -o, --outfile outfile  Output file, stdout if absent or '-'
+
+If stderr is connected to the console the program displays a text mode progress
+bar. Option `-P/--no-pbar` inhibits it.
+
+Option `-o` is useful when infile is absent (input is redirected), for
+example::
+
+    mysql2sql -o outfile.sql < infile.sql
+    cat infile.sql | mysql2sql -o outfile.sql
+
+But of course it simply can be::
+
+    mysql2sql - outfile.sql < infile.sql
+    cat infile.sql | mysql2sql - outfile.sql
