Comment:

 I asked on the tahoe-debian list where this should go in the source tree,
 and Julian Taylor [http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/tahoe-
 debian/2011-July/000057.html confirmed] that {{{docs/man/tahoe.1}}} would
 be reasonable. He also gave a patch to the {{{debian/rules}}} file (not in
 our source tree) to install it to the right place.

 The "{{{tahoe [general options] [command] [command options]}}}" synopsis
 is not correct: all options must currently go after the command. (See #166
 about fixing that, but it's not fixed yet.) Also the command is not
 optional, except for the special case of {{{tahoe --help}}}.

 The "runner command" feature is not supported by the {{{/usr/bin/tahoe}}}
 script installed by the !Debian/Ubuntu packages. It isn't actually needed,
 since that script bypasses the support script, so you can just do
 {{{
 coverage run --branch /usr/bin/tahoe debug trial
 }}}
 or
 {{{
 python -3 /usr/bin/tahoe COMMAND [OPTION]...
 }}}
 for example.

 I will attach a new patch with these and a couple of other formatting
 changes.
