+.PP
+The optional argument \-g starts vimtutor with gvim rather than vim, if the
+GUI version of vim is available, or falls back to Vim if gvim is not found.
+.PP
+The optional [language] argument is the two-letter name of a language, like
+"it" or "es".
+If the [language] argument is missing, the language of the current locale will
+be used.

+Otherwise the English version will be used.
+.PP

+is always started in Vi compatible mode.
