+.TH REDSHIFT: "1" "August 2010" "redshift" "User Commands"
+.SH NAME
+redshift \- Set color temperature of display according to time of day.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B redshift
+\fI-l LAT:LON -t DAY:NIGHT \fR[\fIOPTIONS\fR...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B redshift
+adjusts the color temperature of your screen according to your
+surroundings. This may help your eyes hurt less if you are working in
+front of the screen at night.
+
+The color temperature is set according to the position of the sun. A
+different color temperature is set during night and daytime. During
+twilight and early morning, the color temperature transitions smoothly
+from night to daytime temperature to allow your eyes to slowly
+adapt.

+is configured to use hardware cursors. Some graphics drivers have an
+option to disable hardware cursors in xorg.conf.
