-		Description: `A command line utility to convert I2P tunnel configurations between Java I2P, i2pd, and go-i2p formats.
+		Description: `A command line utility to convert I2P tunnel configurations between Java I2P, 
+i2pd, and go-i2p formats with automatic format detection, validation, and 
+batch processing capabilities.
 
-Supports automatic format detection based on file extensions:
-  - .config, .properties, .prop -> Java I2P properties format
-  - .conf, .ini -> i2pd INI format  
-  - .yaml, .yml -> go-i2p YAML format
+SUPPORTED FORMATS:
+  Java I2P   (.config, .properties, .prop) - Properties format used by Java I2P
+  i2pd       (.conf, .ini)                  - INI format used by i2pd
+  go-i2p     (.yaml, .yml)                  - YAML format used by go-i2p
 
-Examples:
-  # Auto-detect input format, output as YAML
-  go-i2ptunnel-config tunnel.config
+FORMAT AUTO-DETECTION:
+  Input format is automatically detected based on file extension. You can
+  override this with the --in-format flag if needed (e.g., for non-standard
+  extensions or stdin input).
 
-  # Specify output format
-  go-i2ptunnel-config -out-format ini tunnel.properties
+COMMON USAGE PATTERNS:
 
-  # Specify custom output file
-  go-i2ptunnel-config -o /path/to/output.yaml tunnel.config
-  go-i2ptunnel-config tunnel.config custom-name.yaml
+  1. Simple conversion with auto-detection:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config tunnel.config
+     Converts tunnel.config to tunnel.yaml (default output format)
 
-  # Dry run to validate without writing
-  go-i2ptunnel-config -dry-run tunnel.config
+  2. Convert to specific format:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --out-format ini tunnel.properties
+     Converts Java I2P properties to i2pd INI format
 
-  # Batch process multiple files using glob patterns
-  go-i2ptunnel-config -batch "*.config"
-  go-i2ptunnel-config -batch -out-format ini "tunnels/*.properties"
+  3. Specify custom output filename:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config -o my-tunnel.conf tunnel.yaml
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config tunnel.config custom-name.yaml
+     Both flag and positional argument syntax supported
 
-  # Specify both input and output formats explicitly
-  go-i2ptunnel-config -in-format properties -out-format yaml tunnel.txt`,
+  4. Validate configuration without converting:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --validate tunnel.config
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --validate --strict tunnel.yaml
+     Use --strict for additional validation checks (port ranges, etc.)
+
+  5. Preview conversion without writing files:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --dry-run tunnel.properties
+     Shows converted output on console without creating files
+
+  6. Batch convert multiple files:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --batch "*.config"
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --batch --out-format ini "tunnels/*.properties"
+     Processes all matching files, continues on errors
+
+  7. Convert from non-standard extension:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --in-format properties --out-format yaml tunnel.txt
+     Useful when file extension doesn't match actual format
+
+  8. Migrate from Java I2P to i2pd:
+     $ go-i2ptunnel-config --batch --out-format ini "~/.i2p/i2ptunnel.config.d/*.config"
+     Converts all Java I2P tunnel configs to i2pd format
+
+CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES:
+  Ready-to-use configuration templates are available in the examples/ directory:
+  - httpclient   : HTTP proxy for browsing I2P websites
+  - httpserver   : Host your own I2P website (eepsite)
+  - socks        : SOCKS proxy for I2P connections
+  - client       : Generic client tunnel (forward local port to I2P destination)
+  - server       : Generic server tunnel (expose local service on I2P)
+
+  Each template includes detailed inline comments and is available in all three
+  formats. See examples/README.md for more information.
+
+VALIDATION MODES:
+  --validate       : Checks required fields and tunnel type validity
+  --validate --strict : Additional checks for port ranges, target formats, etc.
+
+BATCH PROCESSING:
+  When using --batch, the tool:
+  - Accepts glob patterns (e.g., "*.config", "dir/**/*.properties")
+  - Processes all matching files independently
+  - Continues processing even if some files fail
+  - Reports summary of successful/failed conversions
+  - Cannot be used with --output flag (each file gets auto-generated name)
+
+OUTPUT FILE NAMING:
+  If no output file is specified, the tool automatically generates one based on:
+  - Input filename (without extension) + output format extension
+  - Example: tunnel.config -> tunnel.yaml (default)
+  - Example: tunnel.config --out-format ini -> tunnel.conf
+
+EXIT CODES:
+  0 : Success
+  1 : Error (invalid arguments, conversion failure, validation failure)
