+.SH NAME
+ponymix \- cli volume control for PulseAudio
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBponymix\fP [options] \fIoperation\fP [args]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBponymix\fP is a command line volume control for PulseAudio, letting you
+perform many operations on both device and application sinks and source.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.PP
+.IP "\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-card\fR \fICARD\fR"
+Specify a card. By default, the card associated with the specified device
+is used. Cards can be specified by name or numeric index.
+.IP "\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-device\fR \fIDEVICE\fR"
+Specify a device other than the default. Devices can be specified by name
+or numeric index.
+.IP "\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-devtype\fR \fITYPE\fR"
+Specify a device type to examine, usually in conjunction with the \fB--device\fR
+flag. \fITYPE\fR must be one of \fIsink\fR, \fIsource\fR, \fIsink-input\fR, or
+\fIsource-output\fR.
+.IP "\fB--sink\fR, \fB--output\fR"
+Aliases to \fB--devtype\fR \fIsink\fR.
+.IP "\fB--source\fR, \fB--input\fR"
+Aliases to \fB--devtype\fR \fIsource\fR.
+.IP "\fB--source-output\fR"
+Alias to \fB--devtype\fR \fIsource-output\fR.
+.IP "\fB--sink-input\fR"
+Alias to \fB--devtype\fR \fIsink-input\fR.
+.SH OPERATIONS
+.SS Generic Commands
+.IP "\fBhelp\fR"
+Display the usage and exit.
+.SS Device Commands
+These commands are specific to devices. Not all devices will support
+all the listed commands.
+.PP
+.IP "\fBlist\fR"
+List all available devices. This can be filtered using the \fB--devtype\fR flag.
+.IP "\fBlist-short\fR"
+List all available devices in a parseable format. This can be filtered using the
+\fB--devtype\fR flag.
+.IP "\fBdefaults\fR"
+Display the default sink and source. This is the default command if none
+is specified.
+.IP "\fBset-default\fR \fIDEVICE\fR"
+Set a sink or source by name or numeric index as the default.
+.IP "\fBget-volume\fR"
+Get the volume of a device.
+.IP "\fBset-volume\fR \fIVALUE\fR"
+Set the volume of a device. \fIVALUE\fR is an integer between 0 and 150.
+.IP "\fBget-balance\fR"
+Get the balance of a device.
+.IP "\fBset-balance\fR \fIVALUE\fR"
+Set the balance of a device. \fIVALUE\fR is an integer from -100 (all left) to 100
+(all right).
+.IP "\fBadj-balance\fR \fIVALUE\fR"
+Adjust balance by the integer increment \fIVALUE\fR. The resulting balance has
+the same bounds as those set by \fBset-balance\fR. The end-of-options indicator
+(\fI--\fR) is required when passing a negative increment.
+.IP "\fBincrease\fR \fIVALUE\fR"
+Increase the volume percentage of a device or application by integer
+VALUE. Increasing the volume in this way is capped at 100.
+.IP "\fBdecrease\fR \fIVALUE\fR"
+Decrease the volume percentage of a device by the integer \fIVALUE\fR.
+Decreasing the volume in this way is capped at 0.
+.IP "\fBmute\fR, \fBunmute\fR, \fBtoggle\fR"
+Mute, unmute, or toggle the mute status of a device.
+.IP "\fBis-muted\fR"
+Check if a device is muted. ponymix will exit zero if muted, and non-zero
+otherwise.
+.IP "\fBmove\fR \fIDEVICE\fR"
+Move a device's stream to the given device, specified using the \fI--devtype\fR
+and \fI--device\fR flags. Note that a source output can only be moved to
+another source, and a sink input can only be moved to another sink.
+.IP "\fBkill\fR
+Kill a device's stream, specified using the \fI--device\fR and \fI--devtype\fR
+flags. This only applies to sink-inputs and source-outputs.
+.SS Card Commands
+These commands are specific to cards.
+.PP
+.IP "\fBlist-cards\fR"
+List all available cards.
+.IP "\fBlist-cards-short\fR"
+List names for all available cards.
+.IP "\fBlist-profiles\fR"
+List profiles for a card.
+.IP "\fBlist-profiles-short\fR"
+List only names for the available profiles for a card.
+.IP "\fBset-profile\fR" \fIPROFILE\fR
+Set the specified profile for a card.
