\fBscantailor-cli\fP [options] <project_file> [output_directory]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBscantailor\fP is a post-processing tool for scanned pages.  It performs
operations such as page splitting, deskewing, adding/removing borders, and
others.  You give it raw scans, and you get pages ready to be printed or
assembled into a PDF or DJVU file.  Scanning, optical character recognition,
and assembling multi-page documents are out of scope of this project.
.PP
File names are collected from arguments, input directory, or stdin (\-).  If
output_directory is specified as the last argument, it overwrites the one in
the project file.
