+"""CaptureCmd - A generic tool for capturing information about the
+invocations of another program.
+
+Usage
+--
+1. Move the original tool to a safe known location.
+
+2. Link CaptureCmd to the original tool's location.
+
+3. Define CAPTURE_CMD_PROGRAM to the known location of the original
+tool; this must be an absolute path.
+
+4. Define CAPTURE_CMD_DIR to a directory to write invocation
+information to.
