+.TH UPDATE-READER.CONF 8 "Oct 2006"
+.SH NAME
+update\-reader.conf \- (re)generate /etc/reader.conf
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B update\-reader.conf
+[force]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B update\-reader.conf
+is a simple tool to manage
+.IR /etc/reader.conf .
+The PCSC daemon (pcscd) uses one configuration file for its
+configuration. This makes it hard for packages to dynamically add
+information about their own smart card reader drivers. To fix this
+.B
+update\-reader.conf
+has been introduced.
+.PP
+.B update-reader.conf
+attempts to fix this by generating the configuration file from seperate
+files which are located in
+.IR /etc/reader.conf.d/ .
+All files in that directory are assembled together to form
+.IR /etc/reader.conf .
+.SH "FILES"
+.B update\-reader.conf
+will only use files that match the following wildcard:
+.BR *.conf .
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.BR pcscd (1), reader.conf (5)
