+<title>The command line</title>
+<p>
+To start<app>Atril</app> from the command line, type <cmd>atril</cmd>. You
+can open a specific file by typing the filename after the atril command:
+</p>
+
+<screen>atril file.pdf</screen>
+<p>
+You can open multiple files by typing the filenames after the atril command, separating the filenames by a space:
+</p>
+<screen>atril file1.pdf file2.pdf</screen>
+<p>
+Atril also supports the handling of files on the web. For example, after the atril command you can give the location of a file on the web:
+</p>
+<section id="open">
+ <title>Opening a document at a specific page</title>
+ <p>
+ You can use<cmd>--page-label</cmd> switch to open a document at a
+ specific page. For example, to open a document to page 3, you would type:
+ </p>
+ <screen>atril --page-label=3 file.pdf</screen>
+ <p>
+ The page label should be in the same format as the page number displayed in
+ <app>Atril</app> header bar.
+ </p>
