+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+diffoscope will try to get to the bottom of what makes files or
+directories different. It will recursively unpack archives of many kinds
+and transform various binary formats into more human readable form to
+compare them. It can compare two tarballs, ISO images, or PDF just as
+easily.
+.sp
+It can be scripted through error codes, and a report can be produced
+with the detected differences. The report can be text or HTML.
+When no type of report has been selected, diffoscope defaults
+to write a text report on the standard output.
+.sp
+diffoscope is developed as part of the “reproducible builds” Debian
+project and was formerly known as “debbindiff”.
