+To use ArgParser, compile with the linker option @code{-largparser}
+and use the include @code{#include <argparser.h>}. ArgParser uses the
+namespace @code{args}. When you are done using ArgParser you should
+free its resources using function @code{args_dispose}.
+
+@code{args_init} corresponds the the @code{ArgParser} constructor in
+the Python version, but all parameters are manditory.
+
+@code{args_arguments}, @code{args_arguments_count},
+@code{args_unrecognised_count}, @code{args_message} and @code{args_files}
+works as their Python version counterparts, and @code{args_files_count}
+tells how many elements there are in @code{args_files}.
+@code{args_parent_name} takes the number of levels as a manditory
+parameters, and no other parameter. @code{args_help} and
+@code{args_support_alternatives} takes no parameters, and @code{args_parse}
+takes @var{argc} and @var{argv}, the arguments in your main method.
+@code{args_test_files_min}, @code{args_test_files_max} and
+@code{args_test_files} works are their Java version counterparts, except
+that an return code may not be specified.
+@code{args_test_allowed} and @code{args_test_exclusiveness} both takes
+a string array followed by the number of strings in that array, and no
+return code.

+To popule ArgParser with valid options, use the method @code{args_add_option}
+which takes the options followed by a description as its parameters, the
+description can be @code{NULL}.
+To create an options use either @code{args_new_argumentless},
+@code{args_new_argumented} or @code{args_new_variadic}. With the exception
+that @code{args_new_argumentless} does not have the first parameters, these
+methods have three parameters: a descriptive short name of a argument
+associated with the option, the index of the primary alternative, and
+finally a variadic parameter with the alternatives, meaning that each
+alternative is an argument.
