+Normal usage:
+.Bd -literal
+$ croptool *.jpg > tmp.sh
+$ sh tmp.sh
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Or, if you're brave:
+.Bd -literal
+$ croptool *.jpg | sh
+.Ed
+.Pp
+It is also possible to do more advanced things.
+For instance, to put cropped images into a separate directory instead of
+overwriting the original images, something like this can be done:
+.Bd -literal
+$ croptool -f "croptool_crop %wx%h+%l+%t '%f' '/path/to/cropped/%f'" *.jpg | sh
+.Ed
+.Pp
+If more advanced features are needed for the actual cropping (e.g. a
+different output format), other tools such as
+.Xr convert 1
+can be used:
+.Bd -literal
+$ croptool -f 'convert -crop %wx%h+%l+%t "%f" "$(basename "%f" .jpg).png"' *.jpg | sh
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Note that no great care has been taken to deal with filenames containing
+single or double quotes.
+That is left as an exercise to the reader (hint: just don't have
+filenames containing quotes).
