+    SYNOPSIS
+        {NAME} [--band=|-b FREQ] [--out-directory=|-o DIR] [--squelch=|-s LEVEL] [--rate=|-r SPEED]
+        {NAME} [--help|-h]
+ 
+         --band
+         -b
+                 Desired frequencies (list) to scan.
+                 Skitter will sweep through these frequencies at a set rate.
+
+          --out-directory
+          -o
+                 Output directory. Default: ./
+                 Skitter will save its recordings in a single directory.
+                 You might want to create a new directory for recordings.
+
+         --squelch
+         -s
+                 Level at which to start listening, in decibels (dB).
+                 Anything below this level will be ignored.
+
+         --rate
+         -r
+                 Delay (in milliseconds) between changing channels.
+                 Increase if your receiver cannot switch frequencies
+                 quickly enough.
+                 Default: UNSET
+                 
+
+        --help
+        -h
+                Print this message and exit.
+
+    Examples
+        {NAME} -r 300
+            Sweep through default range and change channels every 300 milliseconds.
+
+        {NAME} -o ~/Music/
+            Run with all default settings and send files to {getenv("HOME")}/Music
