+.Nm
+.Op Fl p Ar promptfile
+.Op Fl a
+.Ar database
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+When this program starts up, answering
+.Sq y
+to the initial
+.Dq Instructions?
+prompt yields directions; typing
+.Sq n
+or
+.Cm RETURN
+skips them.
+.Nm
+then prompts for various bibliographic fields, reads responses from the
+terminal, and sends output records to a
+.Ar database .
+A null response
+.Aq just Cm RETURN
+means to leave out that field. A minus sign
+.Aq -
+means to go back to the previous field. A trailing backslash allows a field to
+be continued on the next line. The repeating
+.Dq Continue?
+prompt allows the user either to resume by typing
+.Sq y
+or
+.Cm RETURN ,
+to quit the current session by typing
+.Sq n
+or
+.Sq q ,
+or to edit the
+.Ar database
+with any system editor
+.Aq Cm vi , Cm ex , Cm edit , Cm ed ,
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl a
+option suppresses prompting for an abstract; asking for an abstract is the
+default. Abstracts are ended with a
+.Cm CTRL-d .
+The
+.Fl p
+option causes
+.Nm
+to use a new prompting skeleton, defined in
+.Ar promptfile .
+This file should contain prompt strings, a tab, and the key-letters to be
+written to the
+.Ar database .
+.Pp
+The most common key-letters and their meanings are given below.
+.Nm
+insulates you from these key-letters, since it gives you prompts in English,
+but if you edit the bibliography file later on, you will need to know this
+information.
