+    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+    <para>
+      <command>rl2sniff</command> is a sniffer tool for RasterLite2.
+      Sometimes handling a relevant number of raster images (may be of
+      different origin and presenting different technical characteristics)
+      isn't an easy task, most notably when your images are dispersed into
+      many different folders.
+      The <command>rl2sniff</command> CLI tool is exactly intended to offer a
+      significant help in organizing and planning any preliminary activity
+      required in order to create and populate your RasterLite2's Coverages.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      <command>rl2sniff</command> will examine files containing a raster image,
+      and will then create a report showing the more relevant characteristics
+      for each one; the supported arguments are the followings:
+      <itemizedlist>
+        <listitem>
+          <para>
+            arguments specifying the intended target:

+                  <option>-src</option> <replaceable>pathname</replaceable>:
+                  will examine just a single input raster image.
