<p>Documentation for developing with <tt>polypaudio</tt> is not yet
available. Read the source, Luke!</p>
+<h3>First Steps</h1>
+
+<p>Simply start the polypaudio daemon with the argument <tt>-C</tt></p>
+
+<pre>polypaudio -C</pre>
+
+<p>This will present you a screen like this:</p>
+
+<pre>Welcome to polypaudio! Use "help" for usage information.
+&gt;&gt;&gt; </pre>
+
+<p>Now you can issue CLI commands as described in <a
+href="cli.html"><tt>cli.html</tt></a>. Another way to start
+<tt>polypaudio</tt> is by specifying a configuration script on the
+command line like that one included in the distribution:</p>
+
+<pre>polypaudio -F polypaudio.pa</pre>
+
+<p>This will load some drivers and protocols automatically.</p>

<h2><a name="requirements">Requirements</a></h2>
<p>Currently, <tt>polypaudio</tt> is tested on Linux only. It requires an OSS or ALSA compatible soundcard.</p>
