+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+pico2audio [*-l <language>*] [*words*]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+**pico2audio** is a shell script wrapper for **pico2wave**. It renders text to
+speech and plays it using the **play** command.
+
+If a *-l <language>* option is given, it will be passed to pico2wave. See
+**pico2wave**\(1) for details.
+
+If *words* are given, they are used as input. Unlike the pico2wave command,
+there's no requirement to quote multiple words. If no *words* are given,
+words are read from standard input.
+
+Exit status is that of **pico2wave**.
+
+EXAMPLES
+========
+
+Examples:
+
+ pico2audio Hello world.
+ Speaks "Hello world" in the default language (en-US).
+
+ pico2audio -l en-GB Hello world.
+ As above, in a British accent.
+
+ fortune -s | pico2audio
+ Reads from standard input.
+
+ pico2audio < /etc/motd
+ Speak a text file. Don't forget the **<** or it says the filename instead.
