 `ikiwiki` is a wiki compiler. It builds static html pages for a wiki, from
 `source` in the [[MarkDown]] language, and writes it out to `destination`.
 
-# OPTIONS
-
 Note that most options can be shortened to single letters, and boolean
 flags such as --verbose can be negated with --no-verbose.
 
-* --wikiname
-
-  The name of the wiki, default is "wiki".
-
-* --verbose
-
-  Be vebose about what it's doing.

-* --rebuild
+# MODE OPTIONS
 
-  Force a rebuild of all pages.
+These options control the mode that ikiwiki is operating in.
 
 * --refresh
 
   Refresh the wiki, updating any changes pages. This is the default
   behavior so you don't normally need to specify it.
 
-* --fixctime
+* --rebuild
 
-  Pull last changed time for all pages out of the revision control system.
-  This rarely used option provides a way to get the real creation times of
-  items in weblogs, for example when building a wiki from a new subversion
-  checkout. It is unoptimised and quite slow.
+  Force a rebuild of all pages.
 
-* --templatedir
+* --cgi
 
-  Specify the directory that the page [[templates]] are stored in.
-  Default is `/usr/share/ikiwiki/templates`.
+  Enable [[CGI]] mode. In cgi mode ikiwiki runs as a cgi script, and
+  supports editing pages, signing in, registration, and displaying
+  [[RecentChanges]].
+
+  To use ikiwiki as a [[CGI]] program you need to use --wrapper or --setup
+  to generate a wrapper. The wrapper will generally need to run suid 6755 to
+  the user who owns the `source` and `destination` directories.

   Note that the generated wrapper will ignore all command line parameters.
 
+* --setup configfile

+  In setup mode, ikiwiki reads the config file, which is really a perl
+  program that can call ikiwiki internal functions.
+
+  The default action when --setup is specified is to automatically generate
+  wrappers for a wiki based on data in a config file, and rebuild the wiki.
