 :  Append contents into a secret, batch mode.

+decrypt <*secret*>
 :  Decrypts a secret into standard output.
 
-del <*SECRET*>

 :  Removes a secret using git. After deleting a secret a git commit and push is still
    needed to update remote repositories. To completely remove a file from a keyring,
    you should also rewrite the git history by yourself.
 
-edit <*SECRET*>
-:  Edits a secret by temporarily decrypting it, opening the decrypted copy into *$EDITOR*
-   and then recrypting it again.

+## CONFIGURATION ACTIONS
 
-git <*action*> <*options*>
-:  Git wrapper that operates from the toplevel keyring repository. 
+commands
+:  List available actions, useful for shell completion and syntax check.
+
+options <*ls*|*edit*|*add*>
+:  List, edit or add miscelaneous *repository* options.
+
+   Repository options are specific configurations for the keyring which are
+   saved into the repository, making it available for all users with access to the
+   repository and hence is a *global* configuration stanza for a given keyring.
+
+preferences <*ls*|*edit*|*add*>
+:  List, edit or add *user* preferences for a given repository.
+
+   User preferences are specific configurations for the keyring which are
+   saved into the user's keyringer folder (`$HOME/.keyringer/`) hence not
+   shared with the other users.
+
+recipients <*ls*|*edit*> <*recipient-file*>
+:  List or edit recipient configuration.
+
+   Recipient files are lists of OpenPGP public key fingerprints which are used
+   by keyringer when encrypting secrets.
+
+   Keyringer uses a default recipient file and supports custom *recipient-files* which
+   overrides the default recipient file according to it's matching pathname.
+
+   For instance, a the *recipient-file* called *accounting* will be used
+   wherever a user encrypts a secret to a file residing from the *accounting*
+   folder in the keyring repository. In that case, encrypting a secret into
+   *accounting/bank-accounts* will result in a file
+   `$KEYRING_FOLDER/keys/accounting/bank-accounts.asc` encrypted using the
+   public keys listed in `$KEYRING_FOLDER/config/recipients/accounting` config
+   file.
+
+### OPTIONS
+
+ls
+:  List all existing recipient files.
+
+edit
+:  Create or edit a recipient-file.
+
+   Edition happens using the editor specified by the `$EDITOR`
+   environment variable.
+
+   The required parameter *recipient-file* is taken relativelly
+   from the `$KEYRING_FOLDER/config/recipients/` folder.
+
+usage
+:  Show keyringer usage information.
+
+# FILES
+
+$HOME/.keyringer/config
+: User's main configuration file used to map alias names to keyrings.
+
+$HOME/.keyringer/*keyring*
+: User preferences for the keyringer aliased *keyring* keyring.
+
+$KEYRING_FOLDER/config/options
+: Custom keyring options which will be applied for all users that use
+  the keyringer repository.
 
-ls <*PATH*>
-:  List contents from the toplevel repository *keys* folder or from relative *PATH*.
