This manual page documents briefly the slimp3 command.

This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation inline.

These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the slimp3 --help output.
