+.SH NAME
+pacmd \- Reconfigure a PulseAudio sound server during runtime
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBpacmd
+
+pacmd --help\fB
+
+pacmd --version\fB
+\f1
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This tool can be used to introspect or reconfigure a running PulseAudio sound server during runtime. It connects to the sound server and offers a simple live shell that can be used to enter the commands also understood in the \fIdefault.pa\f1 configuration scripts.
+
+To exit the live shell, use ctrl+d. Note that the 'exit' command inside the shell will tell the PulseAudio daemon itself to shutdown!
+
+If any arguments are passed on the command line, they will be passed into the live shell which will process the command and exit.
