-@emph{You must not run this program if you are epileptic.}
-Seek someone else how can do it for you.
-
-@command{unstickpixels} recognises the following options
-@table @option
-@item -v
-Use the Linux VT instead of the graphics cards' colour
-lookup tables (CLUT). This requires that the program runs
-under the Linux VT, otherwise known as the TTY. This may
-not work too great one all graphics cards, some very
-expensive graphics cards are really bad. NVIDIA is known
-case of this, why the CLUT utilisation was added.
-
-If you are using a graphical environment and do not know
-how to access the Linux VT, here is how you do it: press
-@kbd{Ctrl+Alt+F1}, if this does not open non-graphical
-login screen, press @kbd{Alt+Right} until you get one.
-To get back to graphical environment, hold down
-@kbd{Alt+Right} until it appears.
-
-Whilst @command{unstickpixels} may run on most systems
-(although Mir and, by Wayland's design, Wayland are
-not supported) this option is only known to function on Linux.
-@end table
-
-@command{unstickpixels} accepts at most one non-option
-argument. This argument is the number of milliseconds
-to sleep between each color switch. This may be useful
-to optimise the effect. It may help to sleep 10 milliseconds
-between each colour switch rather than switching the
-colours as fast as possible.
-
-You should disable powersaving on your monitors and
-disable the screensaver whilst running this program,
-or otherwise make sure that screen loop is always displayed.

-@command{unstickpixels} tries to unstick stuck pixels.
-It does this by rapidly switching between the colours
-sRGB(100 %, 0, 0), sRGB(0, 100 %, 0), and sRGB(0, 0, 100 %),
-which are displayed on the entire monitor. On all of the
-monitors. It helps to massage defective dots.
-
-Running this program for a number of hours, especially if
-combined with massaging defective dots, may heal defective
-dots. Dead dots (always black) are hard to revive, but stuck
-dots are more probable to get fixed.
-
-Dead (always black) pixels are hard to revive, stuck pixels
-on the other hand are more probable to get fixed.
-
-@command{unstickpixels} uses the graphics cards' colour lookup
-tables to switch the colour displayed on the screen. If your
-computers does not supports this, the option @option{-v} may
-help, it will use the framebuffer indirectly, via the terminal.
-Unless @option{-v} is used, @command{unstickpixels} runs both
-in @command{X} and on the Linux VT.

-Acer/Packard Bell is not willing to repair all defects
-on my computer, but at least I can run this for several
-hours and try to revive dead pixels. Playing back a
-video that is already available on the Internet has
-some deficiencies:
-
-@itemize @bullet{}
-@item
-Requires a graphics card and video player that can play
-back the video in full screen mode efficiently.
-@item
-Requires @command{X} or a video player than can play
-video outside @command{X} efficiently.
-@item
-Requires the video to be downloaded if it was uploaded
-on Youtube, because Youtube does not properly support
-full screen.
-@item
-video playback is required per defective monitor.
